Area Competition 2011 : Part 2 - The End

Today was the 2nd and last day of the 7th Annual Area First Aid and Nursing Competition. Today was the day when some teams went home victorious. Others went home with heavy hearts while a few ( like me XD), went home with mixed feelings.
               As usual, I arrived at hq early in the morning. This time, it was 7.30am by the time I arrived. Then, I made my way to the nearest mamak as Don and Wai Hoong were there. While they were eating, Yoong Xiang and his dad joined us. They were then kind enough to sent us back to hq. [ Ed: Thanks, sir and thanks Yoong Xiang =)]
              The competition kicked back into action at 8.00am. While the members were starting to get cozy with the quarantine room, we started the day by preparing the front of hq for the stretcher drill category. We the had to escort the teams to the respective locations.
               Today, there was a lot more work to do. I helped out by guiding the nursing teams to the treatment room for the home nursing category. Everything went well even though there was a slight miscommunication between me and two officers.
               Jonathan, Wilson, Chung Wai and Yu Xuan were there to spectate. In the end, all the teams were ready by 11.30am. While they were being ushered into the hall, we had to pack things up.
              The closing ceremony began at 11.45am. However, before it began, we were already gone XD. We went to YMCA for lunch before we ( except for Don), returned to hq. Luckily we were in time to discover that Yuk Choy and Poi Lam won overall champion for adult and cadet category respectively. Meanwhile, Ave Maria nailed it once again by dominating the entire nursing category. During this time, I felt a tinge of sadness as the trophy that we have won last year was passed to the adult team from Yuk Choy Noooo!!!!!:-( Oh well, we'll get it back next year XD.
              Overall, this years competition was an eventful one. It was fun participating in it from a different angle and even though the number of teams that participated in it was less than last year and the hall was too quiet when the cases were going on ( of course la, no SMI wor XDXD), I still felt the competitive atmosphere and am happy to have helped out in this year's competition.
              Thank God that the competition went well without a hitch and congratulations to the winners for a job well done. Good luck to all the teams that will be advancing to the state level.
