NTU Hall 9 OCIP Nias

Team Nine is well on its way to gearing up for the trip in June. With letters sent out to potential sponsors, we've so far gotten a few companies who're interested and had to send out our official logo and tee shirt designs. It remains to be seen whether we'll have a sole sponsor or many small ones.

In other news, the trip itself has been confirmed for the 11-24 June 2009. The advance party consisting of Chairman Matthew, Vice-Chairman Fang Xiang, Chief Programmer Kah Wee, Asst Welfare I/C Sihui, Logistics & Asst Logistics I/Cs Hansel and Cui Xia and Senior Hall Fellow Prof Heng, however, will set off on the 8th of June.

Ex Officials from the Hall 9 15th JCRC will also be joining Team Nine for the trip. They're our very own Publications Sec Jeanette Lim, Asst. Sports Sec Nigel D'Cruz and President Mike Kho.

With the need for funds a very pressing issue, any opportunity to raise funds is welcome with open arms. Which is why members of Team Nine are actively involving themselves in canvassing opportunities. Some of us will be volunteering at OCBC Cycle Singapore 2009 on the 22nd of February. Others will be taking part in a final year project by students of the Wee Kim Wee School of Communication and Information to earn money to contribute to our fund. There's also going to be a donation box set up at the drinks stall in Can9 to raise awareness about our worthy cause.

Lastly, but most important of all, Team Nine will alos be seeting up a stall at Hall 9 annual Megafest on the 10th of February. We will be selling cakes from Secret Recipe at very affordable prices. Do come down to lend us your support! (:
