The Gathering of ACSians (GOA 2010) on 21 October 2010 was well attended by more than 60 Old Boys despite the ominous haze which was at an all-time high that day. The gathering, which was the second of a series of networking events initiated by the ACS OBA, was held at the cool and trendy Gusttimo di Roma owned by former ACS OBA Management Committee member William Whey.

A great time was had by all as we tucked into 'finger-licking' buffalo wings (which were thoughtfully accompanied by moistened wet wipes!), scrumptious pizza and ice-cold drinks.

The vibe of the evening was laid-back, which formed a wonderful backdrop for intergenerational interaction and networking. In comparison to the previous year's event, GOA 2010 saw a greater number of Old Boys from recent graduating classes and it was refreshing to have an increasingly diverse group support the OBA's efforts.

Benson Puah, President of the ACS OBA, gave a review of the OBA's activities in 2010 and a summary of exciting events that the OBA and the BOG are jointly organising for our 125th Anniversary in 2011.

We look forward to seeing more Old Boys and Girls at our OBA events and hope that each member of our alumni will be moved to make the life-time commitment to be part of the OBA.
