Mr Alfred Lee & Mr Calvin Lim from Kg Chai Chee YEC were among the 400 torchbearers today, carried the Youth Olympic Flame through our neighbourhood.
The torch relay winds through all five community districts in Singapore from 7—13 August (with a break on 9 August), passing through Singapore's bustling financial district, cultural centre and the new downtown before reaching the waters of the beautiful Marina Reservoir and the Float@Marina Bay - the venue for the Singapore 2010 Opening and Closing Ceremonies.
The Flame's journey will culminate in the torch being brought to the Float @Marina Bay in Singapore, the world's largest floating stage, on 14 August 2010. It will ignite the Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games cauldron as part of the Opening Ceremony, signifying the start of the Games. Once lit, the Flame will continue to burn brightly throughout the 12 days of the Games until the Closing Ceremony on 26 August 2010.
