HKMaS Mid-Autum Festival

Wow!! Wasn't that a fantastic evening!!??

On the 28 Sept 2012, HKMaS had organised the first ever Mid-Autumn festival in Sunderland, which aimed to bring all Malaysians, Hong Kongers and other chinese friends together to celebrate this festival. Although it was pretty rush as the committee only decided to have such an event three days before it but it was all worth it! The date of the Mid-Autumn festival is on the fifteenth day of the eighth month, according to the Lunar calendar. It would a night of full moon. 

We were really delighted to see around 40 participants who came to join our event on this day! We had Candy to introduce to us our society before the event started. . 

The participants were then grouped into 5 different groups and they all had creative names:-

1. Heptagon;
2. Sailormoon;
3. Nice-to-meet-you;
4. Baby cream; and
5. Whiskey

Our event started with a game led by Yvonne, called the "loop passing". Heptagon appeared to be the fastest in passing the loop and won themselves the best goodie bag for our next game, lantern making competition! The other groups had different goodie bags as well, making up of a varieties of materials for lantern making. 

The participants were given 45mins to finish their handmade lanterns. The lanterns were marked according to their creativity, team work and originality. Candy and Calvin were the judges of the game. Every team was really enthusiastic and had their own unique ideas in making different creative looking lanterns. Everyone had a really good time!!!

Light refreshments were then served while the judges were making their decisions.

By looking at the pictures above, we could see that lots of efforts were being put into these awesome lanterns! And guess which three lanterns were being chosen by the judges? They were Heptagon's, Nice-to-meet-you's and Baby Cream's lanterns!!! The leaders were then being asked to promote their lanterns so everyone would vote for them in the final round. 

After much competitions, the WINNER was....(drum rolls*....)....HEPTAGON!!! Congratulations again to them!!

The whole event ended successfully at 8:00pm. Everyone left with a big smile on their faces and all the committee members were glad that we held this event for everyone who had joined us today. Thank you again for those who had come today to join us because it would not have been a success without each of you.
