This is my first time emceeing for a grassroots event. Hundreds of Eunos residents really made me nervous. The crowd was spontaneous and eager to clinch away the prizes. Even before we started the games proper, all of the 500 tickets were already grabbed.
We were blessed that the big prizes were won at the very end of the whole game such that the excitement climaxed till the end.
Ming Choo and Wei Kiat played crucial role in the success of the event as they were managing the coordination that happens off stage. We were thankful that Toh Wee joined us too.
A day before Chinese New Year's eve, the market would be open 24 hours to allow for last minute shopping of New Year goodies. Every year for the past 3 years, there would be a Bingo & Treasure Box Nite at the market to engage the residents while they do their shopping. This idea was mooted by Hock Rong and had turned into an annual event.
This year, the event is led by Eunos CC Youth Executive Committee (YEC). In preparing for the event, we had to print out all the Bingo tickets, decorate the treasure boxes and purchase 100 different prizes.
The difference this year is that Mayor Zainul would also be presenting Ang Pows and goodies to needy residents.
My Uncle Francis is the Fortune God for this year.
