Bird Watchers
Kranji Reservoir Park and Sungei Buloh Wetlands Reserve
Special Programme - Remembrance Day Hike
Please note this Sunday is Remembrance Day Sunday and there are two events taking place - the SV Trailblazers Rembrance Day Hike and a separate Remembrance Day Service at Kranji. Due to logistics, it is not possible to attend both so SV will need to decide which one to atttend. For details on the Remembrance Day Service, please contact Alex Voss and find out more details here: Remembrance Day Service.
The SV Trailblazers will be starting the day at 06.00 with a hike that follows the Bird Watchers route which takes hikers along the Kranji Beach memorial. At the end of the hike, at approximately 08.30, the SV Trailblazers will arrange transport to the Kranji War Memorial for a separate observance with wreath laying and a Minute’s Silence. All hikers attending the SV Trailblazers observance will be required to wear their Steadfast and Vigilant T-shirts (do not wear this on the hike as the T-shirt should be presentable for the observance).
Please decide which event you will be attending as you will not be able to attend both. The reason for this is that the SV Trailblazers want to mark their respects as hikers on Remembrance Day. However, the Organising Group has decided that turning up to the Remembrance Day Service in sweaty hiking gear is inappropriate and thus we will mark our observance at the Kranji Memorial after the main service.
