Dear Members

Our first formal event of the year is here. This is the day that we celebrate Singapore's National Day and in IWFSS tradition with excellent food and exquisite wine.

This year, this event takes us to The China Club, with a difference. We will be doing this event on the actual day itself, i.e. the 9th August 2010 and our Vice-President, Mr. Andy Sim has taken the effort to ensure that all of our tables will be overlooking the Marina Bay so that all of our members and guests will be able to take in the wonderful sights of the FIREWORKS that comes on at 8:00pm sharp, immediately after the annual parade display. So, do come in early for the Aperitif at 7.30pm to ensure that you will get to experience the exhilarating fireworks before we formally start our dinner.

NOTE: There will be road closures around the Padang area on the day itself and there is bound to be congestions caused by the road diversions. Therefore, please plan your route carefully and well in advance when coming for the event so that you will not be caught by the road closures or traffic snarls or alternatively, take the taxi for ease and comfort.

Book early to avoid disappointment !!!
