I was in Penang from 29th June to 1st July 2013. Initially, it was my intention to drive and visit some of the Methodist TRAC BB companies on the way. But coincidentally, all of them were off or having a form of special program. So I decided to save money and took the bus instead. Why did it have to be that particular weekend? Because the Stedfast Association was having their 4th Regional Games.

I did not take part in the games personally - missed the registration deadline twice. But I was happy just to catch up and have fellowship during their dinner. This event was organised for the Stedfast Associations in the region, which includes Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Penang, Kuching and Ipoh.
This years games is hosted by SA Penang, led by it's President Mr (Henry?) Goh, who is also the founder of 8th Penang Company. SA Penang worked hand-in-hand with Penang State Council BB, which handled many of the programs and logistics. Feedback from all my associates who attended the event was highly positive. So, kudos to the Penangites!

Despite being out and away from BB for a long time, all of them stood in attention as the Last Post was played, marking the end to this year's games.
The dinner event was held in Wesley Methodist Church Penang. which also happens to be the sponsoring authority of the 2nd Penang Company, the second oldest BB company in Malaysia.
