We, among other running clubs in town, were honoured to be invited to attend the 26th Anniversary Dinner of the Penang Forward Sports Club at the Penang Chinese Town Hall on the 14 of January by its Chairman Mr Lim Choo Hooi.
About 30 of us attended which filled up 3 tables out of a total of 86 at the big occasion.
It was an enjoyable gathering with a variety of entertaining programmes including a Mr. Bodybuilding show and lucky draws with attractive prizes including bicycles.
We would like to express our thanks again to Mr Lim Choo Hooi for the kind invitation and we wish Penang Forward Sports Club continued success in the future.
