Squash (and siew-ngo, seafood, dimsum, beers) trip - HK

Squashers,

A trip to HK is being planned from Sept 23rd - 24th - 25th (Friday, Saturday, Sunday). Apart from the food, and shopping, the trip is also an opportunity for us to re-connect with our close friends at CX Squash. We have an annual match with them after all, which is really just an excuse to share airline talk and drink each other silly ;-)
Planned itinerary:
Friday 23 Sept Land into HK by early afternoon.
Late lunch
Play CX in late evening
Late night supper

Saturday 24 Sept Morning Free time
Play CX in late afternoon
Seafood dinner, followed by drinks and some dirty dancing (if the legs can still handle it)

Sunday 25 Sept Catch flights back to SIN at own time.

The SIA Sports Club has a subsidy for each travelling member, in support of the activities of our group. It is, per pax, $200 or 50% of the approved subsidy rate, whichever is lesser. Not insignificant. Make your membership subscription count.

Approximate budget per pax, on a twin sharing basis, for those travelling from SIN:

Hotel: S$120/pax/night = S$240

Airfare: ID90 EY
$80 + $35 + $72 = S$187

Meals: Bfast, Lunch, Dinner
S$10 S$20 S$30
S$20 + S$60 + S$60 = S$140

Transport, Misc @ S$15/day = S$ 45

TOTAL = S$612

Of course, some of you may be ale to work out a flight pattern which brings you there over those days. That will save you some $.

The trip will be on if we can get at least 5 players. Because it involves our friends at CX who have to confirm courts/rosters etc, lets fix Aug 15th as the due date to firm the trip, or not. So, who's keen to go???

At the moment, the confirmed list include:
Me
Wendy Quah

Reminder email on 15th Aug. Set dateline for responses by 19th Aug. Need to get a few more players to go, as currently only Wendy and myself.

$200/player subsidy for club member confirmed.

And Ronnie has informed that he's looking to organise outings like a boat trip to the islands etc... sounds like fun!

Still looking to increase the number of players travelling......
