Bare Your Sole
Saturday 12th July 2014
9:00am - 12:00pm
Gardens by the Bay East (Rhu Cross)
Habitat for Humanity Singapore’s annual walkathon Bare Your Sole is back this year, providing participants with a unique way to raise funds in the fight against homelessness and poverty. The 2.5km and 5km barefoot charity walk will take place on Saturday, 12 July 2014, from 9am-12pm, at Gardens by the Bay. Currently in its sixth year, the annual event encourages participants to walk barefoot to support those living in poverty and unable to afford basic amenities, such as shelter or clothing.
Habitat for Humanity Singapore is commemorating the positive change which the local community has made over the past five years. Last year’s event had approximately 5,000 participants walking barefoot for the cause, and had raised more than S$300,000. Bare Your Sole 2014 aims to register more than 6,000 participants this year and to raise S$500,000.
Funds raised will benefit Habitat for Humanity Singapore’s local programme Project HomeWorks, an initiative designed to improve the living conditions of the elderly, the sick and the physically challenged living in one-room flats across the nation.
Besides walking barefoot for a good cause, Bare Your Sole 2014 promises to be a fun-filled family event, with food stations by popular eating destinations, such as Dean & Deluca and Cold Stone Creamery. A variety of activities for children, including roving performances by stilt walkers, percussionists and balloon sculptors, will entertain the young and the young at heart. Participants can also stand to win attractive prizes at a raffle draw open to all.
As a complement to the charity walk, participants can help raise funds by competing in the 100KM Challenge as a solo effort or as a collective relay with their friends, families, interest groups and colleagues. Attractive prizes can be won in the following categories: the most creative team, the fastest team, and the team with the highest funds raised.
Registration for the 100KM Challenge is available at www.give2habitat.org/ singapore/BYS2014.

Early bird registration runs until 25 May 2014 while regular registration closes on 15 June 2014.

Peter & Blue’s Forest Adventure
Presented by Singapore Dance Theatre
5 - 8 June 2014 | Esplanade Theatre Studio
For ages 3 and above
Back by popular demand, Singapore Dance Theatre (SDT) will be restaging Peter & Blue’s Forest Adventure from 5 - 8 June at the Esplanade Theatre Studio. Created by SDT Artistic Director Janek Schergen, this hour- long children’s ballet production brings together meaningful morals in a time of fun and adventure.
On a sunny midsummer morning, Peter, his dog Blue and cat Calico, venture into the enchanted forest in search of treats to surprise his mother on her birthday.
In the woods, Peter and Blue meet the forest guardians, the Blueberry Boys, who lead them into the most secluded and magical part of the forest. On their journey, they meet many new friends - Mr and Mrs Strawberry, the Apple Blossom Girls, the trouble-making Thistle, Thorn, and Acorn, and the charming flowers Lilac, Rose, and Snapdragon. Each generously gives Peter special treasures to add to his mother’s birthday basket.
Peter and Blue are escorted home by their new friends, where Peter presents his mother with the basket of goodies. As the day ends, Mother tucks Peter into bed, and the forest folk watch as he falls asleep after his day of adventure.
Meet-the-characters and photo-taking session will also take place after the show.
