Our president,Mr Wong Soon Pin gave a welcome speech.He briefed on the success of the past running events organised by the club such as the Run4it II and the NB-KPAC Half Marathon as well as charity activities and breakfast run.

The president thanked all the sponsors especially the club title sponsor Stream Enterprise as the agent for the popular New Balance products and also DCM tooling which contributed financial supports to the club.

Later there was a special award presentation to our members who participated in the Langkawi Ironman competition recently.The most outstanding award went to Ms Wendy Wong.She incredibly finished the three gruelling events in 12hr 07m 09s.The rest of the club members who took part were Lok Yeong Lim (14h 07m 13s),Ho Kok Yeong(14h 44m 46s),Omar Abdullah(15h 12m 20s),Edwin Ng Heng Chye(15h 12m 21s)Lok Yeong Hang(15h 31m 53s),Lok Yeong Yih(16h 02m 43s) and Shiraz Mikael Khan(16h 36m 18s)

After that it was time to announce the KPAC sportman awards of the year 2008.For the man category,Jayakumar was chosen as the most outstanding KPAC athlete.His 3h 18m 55s achievement in PBIM full marathon last November landed him this special award.And for the woman category none other than Seah Bee Lian deserves the title as KPAC sportwoman of the year.Her consistency and podium finishing in several local running events unarguably won the heart of committees to choose her.

The night went on with the lucky draw contest and also many other stage shows arranged and prepared by the committees such as Mr KPAC that brought so much laughter to the floor.The contestants especially Hanson Quek cheekily 'reflexed' his muscle and showing off his bony figure.

Five couples were invited to the stage to take part in the banana eating competition arranged by senior member Ms Diana.

As the show was going on,lucky draw winners were announced alternately.A total of 63 prizes were up for grab including 4 units of mountain bike and the sponsors were invited to give away the prizes.

The last event of the night before the party bade farewell was the Karaoke session.KPAC karaoke king Mr Ch'ng Hock Leong took this opportunity to sing his favourite Mandarin number.
