Earth Day Camp!!

Greetings to all! We would like to say a big thank you for supporting Fayette House ever since it was first launched. Your cooperation and contributions have helped us improve so much in serving you. Thank you!

Our upcoming event this April will be Earth Day Camp 2010. This is a camp just for you! As Earth Day falls on April 22, 2010, our camp will be during the weekend before Earth Day. This whole April will be Earth month, so whatever you do, please think of Mother Earth; Don't litter, don't commit open burning, carpool more often, and make sure you flush the toilets after using it in our college XD

This year, we are going to camp at Chiling Waterfalls! Sounds chilling? It not only sounds like the name, it also feels like the name. At Chiling Waterfall, you are able to feel a personal touch of Mother Nature. You get to breathe the fresh air, experience the sounds of the birds chirping, play with the chilly waters and dwell in the greenery of the Earth. Ain't it a wonderful experience? The purpose of this camp is for you and I to enjoy this paradise that God has created for us. Check out these pictures:

So, what do you think? If you are thinking of having a break from city life, come up to 10th floor of SEGi College Subang Jaya and register yourselves at the ADP counter for this awesome holiday. Best of all, it only cost RM35 for this 2 days 1 night trip!! Have you gone on a trip that cost RM35 only? Here is your chance!

St. Patrick's Day 2010

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! It is interesting how this Irish celebration is more popularly celebrated by the Americans and that is why Fayette House celebrated the holiday with Fayette House's own twist too! When you think of St. Patrick's Day, you think of green and that was what we had; everyone was encouraged to wear green and those who wore were even rewarded with a promotional price for a beverage that we sold! Speaking of beverage, St. Patrick's Day is usually celebrated with lots of beer but college didn't allow Fayette House to bring in beer so we brought in the root of all beers, the root beer! An informative booth was set up with Fayette House officers in green distributing St. Patrick Day memos and selling root beer to all students and staffs! We hope you enjoyed your St. Patrick's Day this year because we did!

Fayette House Installation March 2010

During the installation ceremony of Fayette House 2010 in December 2009, only ten committee members were installed. After months of seeking for two suitable candidates for the remaining two seats left in the supposedly-twelve committee members student board, the Board came to a final decision to install Sean Mervin and Aaron Daniel to fill up the empty seats. Both the members went through stages of nomination, interview and probation period before they were officially installed as Project Managers for the 2010 board. Congratulations to the newly installed member and all the best to the entire committee!
