AIBI Bike-a-thon @ RE-Live! (Main Event 1)
Global warming is one of the direst environmental issues that we face now. Private transportation such as cars are one of the main source of CO2, one of the of greenhouse gases that leads to global warming. We can reduce the emission of CO2 by driving less and using more public transportation or walk or cycle if possible. Even if Singapore is such a small country, we need to know that every little effort counts!

Double A

Summary of RE-Live!

Double A RE-live! @ Atrium was a successful culmination of the people, private, and public sectors on an event to raised awareness of the importance of living an environmentally sustainable lifestyle. Co-organised by youth from various educational institutions, the event garnered the support of numerous corporations as well as non-governmental organizations, to reach out and engage the public through numerous activities. Throughout the 11 days, youth volunteers engaged passersby to ride with us at the AIBI Bike-a-thon, walk with us at the Green Mile, pledge at the Palmessages booth, visit our Eco Trail, and join our exciting stage games. Through the event, we managed to reach out to more than 10,000 members of the public.

This inaugural event marked a successful start to RE-live! , an annual environmental carnival organized by youth to commemorate World Environment Day. With the knowledge and experienced gained from RE-live! this year, we look forward to bringing to the masses even more engaging and impactful events in the coming years.

We thank all the volunteers, sponsors, partners and of course all the participants who came down and support us. Without you, this event could have not been a success.

We will be back for RE-live! 2009. See you all then :) and remember to RE-think and RE-live!

Summary of RE-Live!

Opening Ceremony

We were honoured to have Mr Teo Ser Luck, Senior Parliamentary Secretary, Ministry of Community, Youth, and Sports, to grace our event at the Guest-of-Honour.

Students from the Celine Jessandra School of Performing Arts drew the crowds and entertained the audience before the arrival of the GOH. With the arrival of the GOH, speeches were delivered by the organizing chairperson Jeevaneswaran Ramoo, ECO president Wilson Ang, a representative from our main sponsor Double A, and Mr Teo Ser Luck himself. Tokens of appreciation were then given out to our partners by Mr Teo. Then saw the official start of the AIBI Bike-a-thon, with Mr Teo cycling the first distance on stage together with Jeevaneswaran and Wilson. This was then followed by a tour of the event grounds, where Mr Teo spoke to the various non-governmental organizations that had set up their booths there, made a pledge to the 7 Easy Green Habits at our Palmessages booth, and spoke to our sponsors at their respective booths.

AIBI Bike-a-thon

20 AIBI stationary bicycles were brought in and set up at the Atrium on the evening of 4th June, the day before the event began. 4 information panels on transport and the environment were also set up on the same day.

On 5th June, during the opening ceremony, the AIBI Bike-a-thon was officially launched by our Guest-of-Honour, Mr Teo Ser Luck, who cycled the first distances together with the organizing chairman Jeevaneswaran Ramoo and ECO president Wilson Ang.

Throughout the 11 days, free T-shirts were given out to the public who cycled a minimum distance for the bike-a-thon. The T-shirts were a means for us to attract more people to participate, to capture their attention and time, so that we could take the opportunity to spread the environmental message, particularly in the area of transportation. For the first 2 days, free T-shirts were given out to anyone who came to cycle for 5km or more. From the third day onwards, this figure was increased to 10km, to encourage the participants to clock more distance, as well as to better regulate the number of T-shirts given out.

On the two Saturdays, records were broken and new records were set in the Singapore Book of Records. The first Saturday saw participants cycling to break the record for the longest distance cycled on a stationary bicycle in 6h (male and female), and the second day saw participants cycling to set new records for the longest distance cycled in 12h (male and female). The 6h challenge had 6 participants, with the breaking of the record for males. The 12h challenge had 5 participants, and saw the setting of new records for both male and female.

The AIBI Bike-a-thon ended with volunteers cycling the last leg of the distance during the closing ceremony, with a total of 19,021km covered over the 11 day period.

The Green Mile

On 8th June, public participants, volunteer road marshals, and organizers gathered on the early Sunday morning to embark on The Green Mile. After a short briefing session and distribution of the bright green T-shirts to participants, the walk was flagged off from the Atrium with the mascot from our main sponsor, Double A, leading the group on the first leg of the walk.

The walk brought participants through the various green lungs within the city area. From the Atrium, participants walked to Fort Canning Park, where a short game was played to encourage interaction between participants. From Fort Canning Park, participants then walked through the Clark Quay area to Hong Lim Park, our midpoint and rest stop. Water and food were distributed here, as participants took a break from the 5.1km walk. From Hong Lim Park, the route then brought participants through the Central Business District, and then on to Esplanade Park, where we were treated to great views of the Esplanade and Singapore Flyer. From the Esplanade Park, we then headed through the grounds of the Singapore Management University, back to the Atrium.

Stage Event

Various stage games were conducted during the weekends to engage public participants in a fun and interactive manner, while passing on some environmental knowledge through the games.

The Snakes and Ladders game was a twist on the usual snakes and ladders game, with a large game board made from canvas, using humans as the pawn, and the inclusion of environment related questions that participants had to answer at each turn before they could proceed. This game engaged public participants, who not only had fun, but also learnt a thing or two about the environment as they went through the game.

Guess! consisted of two rounds: the first round had participants guessing the answer to some multiple choice questions on the environment. Winners from this preliminary round went on to the second round, where they had to guess the number/weight of a creation from recycled materials made by the organizing committee (such as the number of aluminum cans used to create a ball structure). The overall winner for the game received prizes sponsored by our main sponsor Double A.

This game had public participants looking for 3 “environmental heroes” walking around on the events ground, identified only by a little green man somewhere on their clothing. Upon finding all 3 “environmental heroes”, participants were then told that 2 of the “heroes” are fakes, and only one is real. With the “environmental heroes” sharing their knowledge and experiences, participants were to identify the real “environmental hero”.

The Handicraft Competition saw participants creating environmental mascots from recycled materials. Teams of 3 spent about 2h building their mascots, after which they were judged based on the creativity of the mascot as well as the meaning behind their creation. The judges for the competition were the General Manager of Double A, an Environmental Engineering professor from NTU, and a teacher in the Art Elective Program.

Palmessages

The Palmessages canvas was a platform for people to show their support for the environment by placing their palm prints on a large sheet of canvas. Public were invited to pledge to the 7 Easy Green Habits, and then place their palm prints on our canvas, as well as write a short message or sign off next to their print. We received a total of 269 pledges over the first 4 days, after which the filled canvas was put up on the event ground.

Eco Trail

The Eco Trail saw various non-governmental organizations and volunteer groups coming down to set up their booths to publicise their causes and activities. The groups that were present were ACRES, Naked Hermit Crabs, National Parks Board (Central Nature Reserve Volunteers), Nature Trekker Singapore, and Vegetarian Society (Singapore). The booths allowed the public to get to know better the environmental efforts in Singapore and how they can get involved.

Closing Ceremony

Students from the Celine Jessandra School of Performing Arts were again invited to perform before the commencement of the closing ceremony, to draw the crowds. The closing ceremony saw the giving out of prizes for the various stage games, the Double A lucky draw held in conjunction with Palmessages, and the awards for the Bike-a-thon. The organizing committee then took a pledge and sang “Heal the World” together as a mark of their commitment to live an environmentally sustainable lifestyle. A slideshow put together by the organizing committee brought the audience through the highlights of the last 11 days. With a final countdown, the Bike-a-thon was officially ended, signifying the end of Double A RE-live! @ Atrium 2008.
