St John Ambulance - Counting Day (30 March 2008)

After a day of hard work, its time to see results. All the 3 officers crossed their fingers, not asking for more. The participating members met at jurong east interchange and the 2 officers drove them there. We reached HQ at 810am and start counting at 830am. This year was special, we counted tin by tin because there is a competition going on. To our surprise, we complete the counting at Lunch. 132 tins. Whats next? We collected 4 full bags of coin. What is full? A bag that is so heavy that a man have to use lots of strength to carry. No girls was able to lift it up at all. And whats best? $1500 worth of cash collected.

Guess what? We have collected $6700! Congragulations people. Good Job! We were the top in Zone Level. This may not be alot, but compare to last year, it was only $2400.

Lesson Learnt: Hard Work Pays.
