Pioneer Night, in detail.
Hi to all Pioneers,
these are the details of the event so far (bear in mind that it might, or will, change, as many things are still undecided, namely the college's response. However, we will try to set this asap.)
Venue : College grounds (we might choose Fort Canning or any other hotel if not permitted in college.)
Date/Time : 270607 (this is a friday night, may be postponed to the following week though. we have considered the possibilities, this is by far the best timing, as many undergraduates are on their holidays by then.)
Pricing : $40-$80 (it is the major concern amongst everyone, but this is largely dependent on the venue and the programme on the day. the pricing will definitely be fixed around this price, for we have considered that many will still be poor students at that point, thus unwilling to charge a you people an exorbitant cost. at this point i have to assure everyone that we will make the event worthy of the price you pay, even if it is in college.)
Programmes : This is a very unpredictable factor in the event, but just a sneak peek at the event we have thought of. if we are going to hold it in the college, the whole event will be as followed:
it will be a themed event, we have thought of using a heaven and hell concept, held in two different venues. by that i mean that we will have our dinner at a heavenly areana in the parade square, followed by a hellish party night in the hall. not to worry about the food and the enviroment of the event, food-wise we have contacted a very prestigious caterer, which serves fantastic food in an equally amazing presentation. this may include sushi counter, cavery stations (like kebab stalls), and delectable desserts. as for the aesthetics of the event, it will be fully decorated to suit the event, we promise you that it will not look like you are in school. for the party segment in the hall, we have considered several special programmes, such as a live band, performance by the teachers (one worthy of watching, given the talents of our teachers), performance by ex-Pioneers (which is why it is crucial that you people can help spread the message, and recommend anybody to perform for this segment). they say that the emcees make or break an event, for that, we already have considered using renowned radio deejays to host our wonder evening. they might be glenn ong and FD, don and drew, or perhaps rod montero and jean danker, we are still in talks various talents company to check the availability of their engagement. all of these will definitely make this one hell of a reunion. so what about the reunion part? is this not a reunion? not to worry, this is definitely a reunion, but it must be an eventful one as well. we could have easily planned something simple, just a nonchalant dinner affair in a hotel with some speeches and a good emcee, but where is the fun in all that? base on timings and all other pyscological factors, it will be a GREAT REUNION!!
that part was for the college, now a little bit on the Fort Canning:
it is also a dinner, a buffet one, set in a very tribal zen style. eating on tatami mats on low tables, giving a japanese feel. all around will be lit up by fire torches with various other ornaments to make it like survivor tribal meeting. programme wise it will be very much similar to the programme mention above. i have less details for this particular venue because it will spoilt most of the fun if i do leak out too much information.
that is all i can say, however, not all plans are perfect, do leave your comments here and tell us what you think of these, everything. tell us:
-what you expect to see (special segments you will like to have).
-what food you like.
-what enviroment you like.
-what do you think of this whole thing (pricing, emcees, programmes, people you like to see there).
-and any other comments you think may be helpful in running this event smoothly.
here, i have to thank everybody in advance for everything they are about to do. really, this will never happen if it does not have you.
for further contacts, please feel very free to email us at jlcorp.sg@gmail.com
