A Creative, Magical Summer at the Club

Trick or treating at Kellett Island has never been more fun! We had the Big Bad Wolf trying to devour Little Red Riding Hood; Luigi jumping up and down looking for Mushrooms; the Incredibles Family looking to fight Superheroes gone astray... and many more!

Some trekked into the Leaky Cauldron Bistro over to the Swimming Swamp Pool across the Pirate Lair Bar and under to the Trolley Alley and finally to the Bone Yard for Sale Shop to find their treasures. Others had to Lasso the Cow to make it out alive!

NEW – Collect your Kids Programme Stamp!

The Family Sub-Committee is introducing a “Kids Programme – Stamp Collection”! You can earn stamps and collect prizes. It’s going to launch very soon so keep an eye out on the weekly email for information as it goes live!

STILL TO COME

We are working hard on two really cool activities for you! We will have a Family Bowling Tournament coming up (so start telling your parents and sign up!) and will have a second edition of the RHKYC Jr Master Chef!

REMEMBER The Oyster Shell project?

Since last summer, our Club has been collecting oyster and mussel shells from all three club houses to support The Nature Conservancy’s new initiative “Save Our Shells”. Since then, the Club has collected about 1.6 tons of shells for recycling. Instead of sending the shells to landfills, they are taken to a special area in Yuen Long where they are left under the sun for months to kill off any diseases. When ready, these shells will be taken to reef restoration locations, where they will play a big part in rebuilding and restoring Hong Kong’s damaged reefs. Nicknamed “ecosystem engineers”, oysters can help improve water quality, increase biodiversity and stabilize shorelines. With your help, the Club managed to recycle even more shells! Look at these numbers!
