Tree Lighting Evening A yearly highlight, our Tree Lighting Evening on Thursday, November 29 kicked off the holiday season at The Club in a magical way! Our brand new Ballroom got a festive makeover, while our staff gamely dressed up as Santarinas and elves to amp up the holiday mood. A live choir serenaded the crowed with pop songs and classic carols, before Father Christmas made his long-awaited appearance!

A Walk Down Memory Lane Our 70 th birthday celebrations continue with a light-hearted sharing session with Jim Baker, long-time ClubMember, former history teacher at SAS and author of “ Eagle in the Lion City ” (2005) on December 4. The talk opened with fun anecdotes from Jim about his time at The Club in its early years and fond memories of our first Bowling Alley. Pictures of The Club from years past were also shown on the screen, to the delight of many of our most loyal Members in the audience. Jim also touched on the significance of naming The Galbraith Ballroom in honor of Francis Joseph Galbraith, the first US ambassador to Singapore in 1966.
