85th ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION
Months of meticulous planning and countless meetings were exhausted to prepare for this Celebration. Teams were formed to support the logistics and be responsible for secretarial duties, securing best room rates and appoint hotels, restaurant bookings, photography services, transport, guest arrivals and send-off, ushers, program scheduling, newsletter collating and editing, etc. Understandably, each had its own area of frustrations. Those who sacrificed their spare time towards the Celebration success, kudos are duly given.

2014年中元节庆祝会 2014 Mid-Autumn Festival Celebration 6th Sept 2014, 6 pm
余氏总会在9月6日，农历八月十三日晚上，在会所举行中秋庆祝会，趁着中秋佳节，宗亲们欢聚一堂，月圆人也团圆，大家在一起渡过一个难忘的节日。共有98位宗亲出席了晚会，享用了丰富的晚餐和月饼之后，孩子们最高兴的事就是提灯笼到户外去游街，大人们陪伴他们一起出游，仿佛又回到童年的时光。
由青年团团长大强主持的有奖猜灯谜游戏，吸引了许多宗亲的热烈支持，容易的很快就被猜中了，冷僻难懂的，经过一再暗示，好不容易才猜中。晚会最后在幸运抽奖紧张的欢呼声中结束。
中秋联欢晚会能够成功举行，要感谢董事们的精心筹划与通力的合作。
There was a huge turnout of members and their families at this function. An attendance of 98 people was recorded. Everyone enjoyed a wonderful buffet spread. After dinner, we went out for a Lantern Parade around a nearby park. Da Qiang did a good job as Master of Ceremony and he excited the crowd with his word puzzles.
Thanks to all those who worked so hard to make this event a success.

2014年中元节庆祝会 7th Month Ghost Festival Celebration 27th July 2014, 12 noon
余氏总会在7月27日，农历七月初一中午，举行中元节庆祝会，共有60多位会员和来宾出席了庆典。今年的福物共52份，现场选出了明年的正副炉主：正炉主国治，副炉主水发。祭典过后大家齐聚一堂，享用午餐，十分热闹。
农历七月的中元节，俗称“鬼节”，佛教称之为盂兰盆节。传统上中元节是在七月十五举行，但新加坡从初一到月尾整个月都有举行庆祝会和歌台的演出。
传说在农历七月，地府放出全部的鬼魂，于是民间就在这个月祭拜先人以及孤魂野鬼。
中元节的祭品多为生活必须品，少不了柴米油盐酱醋茶，还有烧猪鸡鸭等五牲、发粿。同时，焚烧冥纸冥钞给先人在另一个世界里使用。
27th July 2014 was the commencement of our 7th month Ghost Festival, which would last a whole month. Traditionally, food offerings, burning of incense, joss paper, printed paper gold, silver, money were burnt for the visiting spirits and ancestors. Yee Clan performed rituals to venerate our dead ancestors.
Later on the ceremony, members had a good buffet lunch. One of our members prepared delicious double boiled lotus root soup. Big thanks to all who helped to make this event so enjoyable.

We arrived at the Muar Yee Clan just before noon. The local Clansmen greeted us with a warm welcome at their premise and all of us paid our respects in-front of their ancestral altar. There were renewals of goodwill and friendship followed by refreshments. An itinerary for the afternoon, was a visit to a famous local Nam Thien Temple. In the evening, we attended a lively welcome dinner.
Next morning, all of us went for a day tour of Malacca, which was an hour’s drive away. Visited the King’s Well or Hang Li Po Well, Christ Church Melaka, Clock Tower and Hang Jebat Road for some small shopping.
The gala dinner was at Chung Hwa High School’s huge auditorium. Dinner was well attended by 1,160 guests - local and overseas. Representatives from China Yongchun, Jiangmen, Macau, Taiwan, Thailand and Singapore were present. We were entertained with orchestra and dance performances. Representative Clansmen of their respective countries exchanged plaques and mementos with Muar Yee Clan. The grand finale of the dinner was cutting of a huge 80th Anniversary cake and singing the birthday song. That brought the grand dinner to a successful conclusion.
We were very grateful to the Muar Yee Clan for their efforts and looking after our comforts during this visit.
