#Throwback to your army daze when “book out” were the only 2 words that mattered while digging your own graves shellscrapes while outfield.
To celebrate 50 years of our soldiers fighting for the nation, SAFRA is hosting an open house to thank all servicemen who have done our country proud. Join SAFRA Toa Payoh’s open house on 1-2 July to reminisce some good ole’ NS memories – a day so good you’ll want to semula.
Fall in with your section mates at SAFRA Toa Payoh’s rooftop and reminisce your NS life together. All you have to do is flash your 11B for exclusive access to a lepak-at-the-rooftop session. Non 11B holders, you can also join the party with a nominal fee of $15nett. Free-flow beer included!
Finger food will also be provided, and don’t worry it’s not army rations!
Date: 1st July 2017
Time: 6pm – 10pm
Venue: Rooftop
*Pre-registration required. Register here.
Take SOC to the next level and race a drone through an obstacle course. With a racing arena made just for drones, you can finally fulfill your F1 dreams.
Manoeuvring a drone is not as easy as it sounds – it requires a great deal of hand-eye coordination. Put your skills to the test and be astonished at how far technology has come. Best part? It’s 100% free. SAFRA members are given priority for pre-registration.
Date: 1st July 2017 & 2nd July 2017

Venue: Multipurpose Hall

If you were the zero fighter of your platoon, it’s time to redeem yourself. The difference is, this time you get to try again with your kid – which means you cannot afford to lose face. You never know, you may just outdo yourself while trying to prove a point.
P.S. You’ll get this limited-edition notebook and an “11B” for your kid if you participate!

SAFRA Open House 2017 isn’t only a great opportunity to have an army reunion, but also to let your family have a rare chance to see what you went through. As a tribute to all Singaporean servicemen who have fought so hard (and lagged 2 years behind everyone else) for the nation, come down and celebrate with SAFRA.
The open house is from 10am to 6pm, so you can visit OTOT. Don’t forget to pre-register for the events you wish to participate in!
