Good job for Open Day, can see that everyone was trying their best to commit to their duties even though there isn't much to commit to *smirks*. Still thank you to everyone, especially when you all worked so fast to take down the structure (I think you guys spent less than half an hour). Amazing to see how motivated you all were when taking down things, as contrasted against setting things up, when you all can spend 3 hours. Hopefully you all can keep up the efficiency in doing other activities like you all did today.
Anyway I hope this will be the last time we have to build structures, because I heard that some parents asked us, "Is this like Scouts?". Obviously we should become more 'outdoor' as our name suggests, and do more activities like cycling and climbing.
Anyway flagraisers especially Luke, Sean and Darryl, if you are reading this, please stay back after Monday flagraising, or if you guys cannot make it, after Wednesday's activity for a short meeting, which won't last more than 5 minutes. Thanks!

Hello, this is Kah Han here.
As you can see, this is a super new blog which is the Exco's idea to make sure OACians receive latest news about the club, since you guys spend so much time on the net. I also figured that it's more cost efficient to spread news here rather than sending SMS relays which sometimes fail to reach a certain population out there.
With SMS relays and this blog and verbal reminder from your fellows, there should be no excuse to not know of anything that has happened (or is going to happen) in the club.
Other than administrative purposes, this blog also serves to tell others what we have been participating in. Yeah so if you have a lot of word/photos/videos of our activities you want to share, come and blog it!
Meanwhile I shall search for a nicer blogskin.
Cheers :D
