AdventuRace 2009 ( Part 1)


Hello once again everyone. About a week and a half back Sky Adventure Club once again successfully conducted one of it's 3 biggest events in a year which was the AdventuRace 2009a combination of Fear Factor and The Amazing Race. Being such a big scale event, planning started a few months back with Coffee being the OCP. This year's event was a success as it got good anticipation from every party involved. The race was held on the 18th of April 2009 and flag off was at the groundfloor Taylor's Business School. 20 teams participated and they came up with quite interesting names for themselves such as the ' Three Blind Mice' , 'Victorious Secret' , 'Threesome' and 'Three Knights Stand' . Sounds horny don't you think? Haha

Mr. Teddy and Miss Simba as our emcees

So we begin our race with teams being given a task to look for 3 masked men around SS15 in a correct sequence. Some teams were quite good with their directions and managed to loacte the masked men in a correct sequence. The 1st masked men was at FTZ cybercafe, second one at the Carrefour bus stop and third one at Taylor's College main library. After that came the sandwich making task in which teams had to make 10 sets of sandwich and sell them for RM 5 a set or more. Sounds crazy but that is just good business..hehe. Some teams resorted to waking thier friends up from their deep sleep just to do business. Well that's wat you do when you're in a race.

Good Morning Sunshine!! =)

ZZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZ

The next task would turn out to be quite a challenge for some teams as it really favoured the female participants and absolutely killed the guys. It was the cross stictch at Subang Lake where teams had to form the letters S A C on 3 pieces of cloth before proceeding off to thier next task.

How's it going bro?

After quite a stressful time stitching, teams then had to proceed back to SS15 for a certain task called Innardtia where teams had to do quite a simple thing. They just had to bite transfer chicken innards using thier mouth. Mmmmm..sounds nice doesnt it?

Ok so maybe not so nice after all..hehe

Beware!! Innard projectile!!

After some throwing up due to those nasty innards the teams then proceeded to a place known as 'Coffee's house' located somewhere in Bandar Utama. Quite a few teams were tricked into going to 1 Utama thinking that ' Coffee's House' was something like an Old Town Kopitiam or Starbucks for that matter. The writer's team actually asked the receptionist at 1U where was ' Coffee's House' located. Upon arriving at the real Coffee's house the teams were then pleasantly surprised with a realli nice drink. It was the famous AdventuRace Blend. Nutritious and Disgusting. Haha..ingredients included were raw eggs, ketchup, ginger, onions, chilli sauce, chilli padi, dried crushed biscuits and all the other nice things you can think of. Upon your first look you'd probabaly think that the blend came from Starbucks. Haha..Wave and Happy were more than happy to serve the participants



Nutritious and Disgusting


Anyways this is just our part one of the race as we have just completed the halfway mark. More pictures and write ups of part two and the closing ceremony to come. =)

Orientation Camp (2nd day)

Wow...we spent our night on the beach. However, a heavy rain suddenly poured and all members were forced to get into the tents. The sun rise view activity which was supposed to carry out in the morning was forced to be cancelled due to the heavy rain...sad....


This did not spoil our mood after all, about 10 a.m., the rain finally stopped. Members started to wake up to have a simple but lovely breakfast, the 'typical' breakfast we normally have when we go for whatever camping trips...Tuna bread and Milo...yummy!!!

WOw...it looks yummy....

After everyone finished their breakfasts, there was another game ready to be played!!! It was known as the compass march, as usual, the previously divided teams had to follow the directions given on a paper to find their next locations, it was not an easy task as the members had to solve the instructions given to determine where they had to go, this was assisted by a compass. Many groups were forced to restart because they failed to go to the instructed directions as suggested on the paper. However, due to the strong determination of each group, most of the groups managed to reach the end point, which was exactly the STARTING POINT!!!


cool pic...


And congratulations to the team known as the We Are the Sakai Gang that won the best team award, the camp finally ended amicably after 2 days!!!Wohoo....we finally packed our things and had our lunch at Pizza Hut before we headed back to TBS.
Group pictures...GO GO SAC!!!
