Details
Meet: Punggol Coast MRT Station (NE18) Passenger Service Centre*
When: Thursday 4th December, 4:15 pm**
***Gategrashers will be turned away. Thank you for your understanding and kind co-operation***
**This is a Rain or Shine event. Please take a good lunch or bring along some snacks if you feel hungry along the way. Our walks are usually between 8 - 12 km long. Just so you know, the weather may be hot but as the sun sets, the weather should be cooler.
Please be punctual. You are encouraged to be slightly early to avoid disappointments. There will be 5 minutes grace for attendance taking. Please remember that we cannot wait because this would be unfair to those already present.
This Meetup group is a community-led group by volunteers. Please extend grace in areas of inadequacy. You are most welcome to give constructive feedback; we strive for improvement!
The new Punggol Coast MRT station is open! Tied to the Punggol Digital District and near the SIT University's new campus, the architecture is a sight to behold.
Let's meet at the Punggol Coast MRT and walk through the SIT University's new campus together. Then we head towards Coney Island!
Formerly known as Pulau Serangoon (English: Serangoon Island), Coney island was once owned by entrepreneur siblings Aw Boon Haw and Aw Boon Par, before being sold to an Indian businessman, Ghulam Mahmood, in 1950 with the intention of turning the island into a resort modelled after the amusement area at Coney Island, New York.[5] Unfortunately, things didn't work out.
We will head towards the Lorong Halus Red Bridge and have dinner around the area. See you there :-))
