Heritage Trail 17 August

Heritage Trail at Fort Canning

Event: 17 August 2014

Written by: Joshua YIP

On 17 August 2014, it was a humid and warm Sunday. All of us gathered at Fort

Canning Park at 3pm. Most people were on time. I can’t wait for the race to start.

First, we lined up in our SIX at Fort Gate. Then, Uncle Kelvin and Zoya led

the Grand Howl. Then, my dad, Uncle Benny did the briefing. After we got the first

clue, we set off to where our clue asked us to go.

It was an Amazing Race with “Minute-to-Win-It” games

Everyone had to help to solve the riddles. Every stationmaster would tell us about Fort Canning
history and we have to write down in our worksheet. Then, the challenge would begin. I liked the “Junk In the Trunk” game the most.

My team, Stingray, came in First!

The second prize went to Snowy Owl...











 and Third was Otter.



I learned about the history of Fort Canning and the history of world war two in Singapore. It was very fun with the worksheets and challenges together!

Scouting can be very interesting and fun.
