ClubSNAP's 'Day@TheZoo - Logistics and Important Information

Location of Forest Lodge - please refer to attached.

Transportation
Thanks to Nikon Singapore, we can now confirm that there will be transportation provided to/from the Singapore Zoo.
The bus to be used is easy to spot - it will be the one with Nikon advertising on it, and there will be a Nikon sign next to the bus. We will also assign a Moderator to be there to act as a guide.

Bus schedules:-
8:45am - From Ang Mo Kio Interchange to Singapore Zoo.
5:00pm - From Singapore Zoo to Ang Mo Kio Interchange.

oopps... forgot to unlock this thread.
Please post any questions you may have here - I hope that I have been clear enough in my explanations.

I am not a FOZ nor have purchased a day@zoo ticket.
So i buy a full ticket price($12.25, no 25% discount) and will get full refund at the registration counter upon purchase of day@zoo ticket?

Thats the idea - would have been better if you had purchased the 'Day@TheZoo ticket cos Zoo is charging us a discounted rate, but since you didn't, we will refund the amount paid for the entrance (if you have POSB account, you can get a 20% discount).

And of course, you still need to buy the 'Day@TheZoo ticket at the door

Thanks for the fast reply....

Piece of s***. I don't know the Zoo well.
I'm the most likely to get lost. So are there any obvious signs that my bimbo mind will notice?

LOL. What if I got so lost that I started taking pictures around the Zoo without even going to the Forest Lodge?

N.B: I forgot that this is a family forum for all ages and that swear words will be censored out.. *mutter*

[germ_boi]

there is also another simple way...

watch for a huge group of people with cams of all sizes coming out of a NIKON propaganda bus and all going in for free due to their having yellow tickets... i think thats them...

den just follow them in la.... hahaha...

PS: Unless it is blind lead blind den really 无话可说！

Darren, what must we flash in order to get the 20% POSB discount? Our ATM cards?

I believe it's given when you pay via NETS.
