First sub-committee experience in NUS - 28th May Major Outing
Posted by CSC T.H.E. Seniors on Monday, July 21, 2014 with No comments
My involvement in Major Outing as a publicity sub-committee member was a fulfilling journey. My previous involvement in a committee was in JC. It has been quite a while and I was excited in this new role.
I started off making publicity poster and recruiting volunteers. It was a bit of a challenge because of the tight schedule. I also have to refresh my Photoshop skills because I had not used the program for a year. Nevertheless, we managed to pull it off because of the great support the volunteers gave and I am really hearten and thankful for that.
In addition, I also helped in the hands-on of the volunteers' gift and program's logistics. This was similar to stuff that I did when young as I used to make things out of raw material as a pastime. I enjoyed doing this as much as I did when I was a child. What was more significant was the deeper friendship forged with the committee members throughout these sessions.
After much preparation, we were ready to entertain the elderly. I was the photographer for the Major Outing and I was responsible to capture their smiles. It wasn't too difficult for me because the volunteers were engaging and entertaining and the elderly enjoyed themselves.
I knew our effort for the past month paid off when the elderly displayed their generosity in their appreciation and couldn't stopped thanking us as we waved good-bye to them. We promised that there are more of such event in future.
After the event, I made Thank-You posters for both the volunteers and the sponsors. These were then emailed to them. They helped to make this event possible and we are really grateful for that.
