Additional Notes
1. Admission for the elderly is free, however, the admission for volunteers is payable at a 20% discount (discounted price: $13.20, normal price: $16.50)
No promises, but we are still trying our best to look for subsidies and sponsorships to cover the admission costs for volunteers. Nonetheless we hope you can continue to lend your support for this elderly outing please… Thank you!
2. Areas marked out at Animal Friend’s Show to cater to disabled visitors
Finally, there will be a total of 25 elderly (10 walking, 15 wheelchair-bound) and 2 staff going. We need about 20 volunteers to help supervise the 28 students attached to the elderly. Lunch and afternoon tea will be provided only for the elderly by SN Home. The rest of us have to see to our own lunches. See you there!
