RCW 2009 Appreciation Dinner
Dec 8th
Robotics Challenge Week 2009 had successfully came to an end some time ago. As a sign of gratitude, an appreciation dinner was held for all the committee members who have given their fullest commitment to RCW 2009. Without their hard work, RCW would not be a great success. Around of applause to all of them!
The appreciation dinner was held at Plaza Siswa on the 3oth of November. All committees were served with delicious Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC). Cries of joy and laughter could be heard around the canteen as committee members dig in on the fried chicken and coleslaw. It had been a long time since all committee members last met. Therefore, the appreciation dinner was kind of like a small gathering for all us. We got to chit chat, reminisce on past event and share our current life happenings. Ah.. the good old times.
