What You Missed: Wild Rice Ball, Golden Glow With Guerlain, Bottles For A Cause, And More

Bottles For A Cause with Lions Club of Singapore Orchard

Under the direction of its president Dayanand Menon, the Lions Club of Singapore Orchard organised a charity dinner called ‘Bottles for a Cause’ at the renowned Empress restaurant at Asian Civilisations Museum. It raised $22,000 through an auction of rare wines, champagnes, and whiskies to benefit the Lions Home for the Elders. The silent bidding segment, which allowed you to choose someone to sing a karaoke song on your behalf, made the evening’s activities livelier and more enjoyable.

Club Tropicana at the Wild Rice Ball

Held annually in the Shangri-La Hotel Island Ballroom, the Wild Rice ball extended a warm welcome to everyone who attended. The room, which went by the name Club Tropicana, was fully decorated with neon lights, and the guests were glammed up in glitter, fruits, ferns, and sequins. A thrilling performance by the Singapore School of Samba and a hilarious rendition of Barry Manilow’s ‘Copacabana’ by Hossan Leong were among the highlights. A total of $861,195 was raised, part of which was used to kickstart the organisation’s New & Now campaign. The money will be dedicated to support the company’s efforts to find and nurture new plays and performers.
