Treasure Venture 2012

Published on 26 June 2012

Our annual autoventure trip to Malaysia "Treasure Venture 2012" was held on 15-17 June during the school holidays. More than 50 family teams gthered for the flag-off at Orchid Country Club. The convoy led by U Family, travelled north over 2nd Causeway Link to our destination - Lake Kenyir. Families spent time bonding together over navigation games, sampling yummy local dishes, playing icebreaker games at the hotel and exploring the many natural attractions. At the end of the trip, participants were wistful to return back to Singapore and many promised to return next year for another fun Treasure Venture!
