A Day in A Life of A... YOG Volunteer

By my queenstown on Monday, September 20, 2010 with 14 comments

As the Youth Olympic Games draw to a closure in August this year, many Singaporeans and foreigners alike would still have the 12-day sporting extravaganza deeply engraved in their memories. The event was said to be well-planned and received worldwide. One cannot forget the groups of people who made YOG possible, one of them being the huge pool of YOG volunteers.

Today, we shall look into a day in the life of a YOG volunteer. Evonne Tay, 30, signed up as a volunteer for the YOG in 2008. She also signed up as a volunteer in the 2009 Asean Youth Games(AYG). She was appointed as a transport team leader during the 2009 AYG. Evonne gained valuable experience in the AYG, working with other volunteers as well as logistics personnel. Eventually, as the YOG draws near in early 2010, Evonne was promoted to a Supervisor position as she had prior experience from the AYG.

Evonne

Evonne had to work from 8am to 8pm every day, from the duration of 12 August to 23 August 2010. The 12 hour shift was tiring but necessary as she had to ensure the welfare of 55 other volunteers under her charge, and also perform the daily operations that she had been tasked.

At 8am, Evonne briefed her team members about the tasks that they have to perform for the day. They were to be stationed at various checkpoints and screen the people that were to enter the sports complex. Volunteers, athletes and spectators would have been issues different passes and tickets in order for them to enter the venue.

During lunchtime, Evonne had to ensure that her volunteers have collected their catered food and are well-fed. Evonne dismissed the rumor that the meals for volunteers are measly and insufficient. “From my personal experience, the meals for the volunteers are well catered for and not as bad as they said.”

Basketball Competition at Scape

In the afternoon, Evonne was back to her job of supervising the volunteers at the various checkpoints. There was a 3v3 basketball game at 2.30pm and they were to screen everyone who were to enter the compound. Evonne received a call from one of her team leaders that an athlete insisted on entering the sports complex without a proper pass. She tried to converse with the athlete but was held back because the athlete only knew how to speak French. Evonne later found out that the athlete did not have a ticket as they were all sold out on the actual day. Even as her jobscope does not require her to do so, Evonne eventually assisted the athlete in purchasing a ticket.

In the evening, Evonne had a gathering with her fellow volunteers as the games draw to a close. The volunteers are mostly from secondary schools and tertiary institutions. “Bonding is important as our networking do not end after the YOG, there are plenty more volunteering opportunities in the future.”

Evonne got her first volunteering experiences while she was studying in Ghim Moh secondary school. As a girl guide, she got to visit old folks' homes and help out in food distribution programmes. Currently, Evonne is involved in some assistance programmes by various organisations.



Happy @ Work

Evonne believes in helping the wider community and being happy in the process. She derives pleasure in volunteering and seeks any opportunity to learn new skills from her work. To all volunteers out there, Evonne encourages you to stick with your personal voluntary aims and never give up, even in the face of setbacks.

I CAN GIVE MY STORY ON HOW I GOT MY LOAN
Congratulations to all those who received their loan from SANTA GROUP FUNDING !!!.via: creditosantajusta@gmail.com
Do you want a loan with no loan company application fees OR ZERO WORRIES ? IF YES HERE IS MY TESTIMONY, I think you should also contact them that is why I'm writing this Testimony because I'm really grateful for what STANTA Funding Group did for me and my family. When I thought there was no hope, this loan company came and make my family feel alive again by lending us loan at a very low interest rate of 2%. Well, I have been searching for a loan to settle my debts for the past three months, all I met scammed and took my money, until I finally met a God sent Lender. I never thought that there are still genuine loan lenders on the internet but to my greatest surprise I got my loan without wasting much time. So, if you are out there looking for a loan of any amount, I would advise you to email Mr. Santa via: creditosantajusta@gmail.com or call/text/Whatsapp +1(659) 210-0433.

Hi everyone, I will want you take a little time to read this it might be of help to you. How do I recover my crypto from a scammer. The Question is Does/or has anyone been successful with Crypto Scam Recovery? My Answer is Yes, I have successfully recovered my crypto from scammers on two different occasions .my first experience.

I invested $35,000 worth of crypto. With a forex broker who I met online since I usually see several promos on his page, I felt he was a good one and a reliable one at that. After sending my crypto I felt a little discomfort because I realized how will I just sent such a high amount of money to a total stranger to who I know nothing of or his location, but I felt I wasn't the only one since I have seen several promos of his. So my investment was to last for three weeks firstly Then a possible renewal after my ROI, but three weeks came I expected my money the first day it never came, the second day still nothing and on the third day I reach out to them requesting for my money, but I was told they were having little problem with their sever and I was told to be patient for a week and my ROI would be sent to me, but a week past and few days I reach out to them again and. This time I got no response I tried for several days with no positive reply and eventually I was told to send some more money to my account to enable, which I did, I sent a total amount of $5000 that was what I was asked to do. Immediately again every connection was lost I cant even reach their web page anymore. I told this to a few of my friends and that was when I got the hint that it was a scam. I was highly devastated and confused I didn't know what to do. I went to the cops but they couldn't help because they had no lead on the whereabouts of the case or broker. Then I Went back online to made several research on how to retrieve cryptocurrency because I have heard a lot of times how people recovered their money but I wasn't so sure about that, I know after reading several pages I should have a little knowledge on how to go about that. And I did just that I saw several Recovery agencies and their reviews, but I decided to go for D-HACKER Group Hackers, I wasn’t too sure of them at first about Fund Retrieve, as I was still very scared to fall another victim of Scam, but base on the way people was commenting on there job well done, I decided to be on a safe side by contacting someone who commented, to know if they are real or not. Believe me it still amazes me how they went about it but am just grateful they did. So I'll advise you also to do the same, reach out to them make a formal complaint, don’t hope they will get your job done within the time given by them. and Yes there work price is reasonable, I bet you it worth it. They have helped me recovered both stolen funds from the broker scammers, and I am sure they can help you recover yours too. To save your time go straight by Email dhackersplatform@gmail.com go and get your worried solved

Note they are not limit to just Recoveries only they can do other hacking stuff as well, as I read many other testimonies on School
Results upgrading, credit score repairs as well fixing crime records, this people are awesome with their job. Try them and thank me later

Hello everyone, I’m Jimmy Wheeler from Sydney, Australia. I’m 64 years old and I own a Carwash business. A few months back, I invested 390,000 AUD worth of Bitcoins & Ethereum into the cryptocurrency platform CryptoXStock and later found out this platform is a scam and has defrauded other people including myself of our money. I fell sick and was in the hospital depressed for weeks. I got in touch with the authorities and there was nothing they could do to help me get back my money until I saw an article online about Spyweb Cyber Service, a cyber security expert who has tremendous reviews of how they have helped victims of internet scam to recover their money, I didn’t hesitate to contact them and provided all the information they needed. To my surprise, Spyweb was able to recover my money and trace down those scammers in less than 72 hours. I’m truly grateful for the services of Spyweb Cyber and I’m recommending them to every victim of an internet scam who wishes to recover their money.

I have always thought it would be impossible to recover stolen cryptocurrency funds until I came across SpyWall recovery team, this cryptocurrency recovery team was able to successfully recover my stolen Bitcoin and Ethereum funds.
I was one of the many victims of a crypto scam and I lost my entire family savings trying to double it.
It was a very difficult time for me and my family, I was depressed and gave up hope of ever getting my money back. A few weeks ago, I came across a post while searching for clues on Google on how to recover my cryptocurrency, I saw a recommendation about SpyWall and how they were able to effectively recover cryptocurrency funds for many scam victims. I didn’t hesitate to contact them and provide them with all the information, SpyWall was able to recover my funds within two days. I’m truly grateful for their service and I promised them I would recommend them to others like me.

HOW I RECOVERED MY FUNDS FROM THE ONLINE SCAMMERS

What you can accomplish with the correct information is absolutely astounding. I’m sincerely appreciative of CYBERTRACE assistance in locating my cryptocurrency funds in phony investment accounts. When I believed I might make more by investing in cryptocurrencies, unaware that I had been duped, losing $184,000 of my hard-earned money was agonizing and sad. When I was conducting research online and came across testimony about CYBERTRACE I was able to get in touch with CYBERTRACE.
I discovered that CYBERTRACE had assisted other victims, including myself, in recouping their losses.
I sincerely appreciate their assistance and praise them for their professionalism and dependability.contact CYBERTRACE via Email:{cybertraceservice@usa.com}

There was no denying the sinking sensation in the pit of my stomach. The warning, "Transaction Failed," taunted me with its stark simplicity as my fingers trembled as I glanced at the screen. Not Enough Money." My heart pounded on my chest, a wild drum solo juxtaposed with the terrifying knowledge that my Bitcoin was lost. Taken. vanished into the digital void's ether. Panic clawed at my throat, threatening to drown me in a sea of despair. Months of meticulous saving, careful investments, all seemingly evaporated in a single, horrifying click. The bitter irony was almost unbearable – I, a staunch believer in the power of blockchain technology, a self-proclaimed evangelist of decentralization, had become the victim of a digital heist. But amidst the swirling vortex of despair, a glimmer of hope emerged. A friend, a fellow crypto enthusiast, mentioned Cyber War Drivers. Skeptical but desperate, I clung to this last straw of possibility. The website, sleek and professional, offered a beacon of light in the encroaching darkness. My initial interaction with the Cyber War Drivers team was a breath of fresh air. They listened patiently to my tale of woe, their empathy a soothing balm to my raw emotions.

"Subject: Recovery Successful." The words, simple yet monumental, washed over me like a wave of relief so powerful it nearly knocked me off my feet. My Bitcoin, my stolen treasure, was back. Rescued from the clutches of the digital underworld, returned to its rightful owner. The joy of that moment is indescribable. A feeling of vindication, of justice served, of hope restored.
