SCDF Community Bonding Day 2013 Part 1


It was going to be an exhausting event for all of us.

SCDF has organized a Community Bonding Day (CBD2013) in which participants are invited to view and participate at the many booths SCDF had set up to raise awareness on the organisation, fire safety as well as first aid.

Located at ITE East. (near the MRT line linking Tanah Merah to Simei), the event was 3 days long, with our staff manning the booth starting from 8.30 am all the way until 5.30 in the afternoon . Participants came in wave after wave, hence only allowing us to take our lunch in shifts so as to ensure the booth is manned at all times.

I was stationed at the CPR booth. And with the brief breaks I had, here are some of the shots I managed to get of the event.
