Not many people know there is actually a Longhouse, in Awana Genting, Genting Highlands. I did not know until my family and I joined their Genting Back to Nature Eco Retreat 2015.
Awana Genting Long House is suitable for team building and motivational camp.We had a chance to experience team building and motivational camp organized by Resort World Genting at Awana Longhouse. It was a 2D1N program. Back to Nature program was participated by 85 teenagers and we had the opportunity to experience jungle trekking, working in groups and slept in luxury big camping tents.
Day 1
The program began with the briefing pf participants from several districts in the state of Pahang, Pahang Bentong, and Charis House of Kuala Lumpur along with bloggers and media
Then we were taken to trek a 130million year old rainforest nearby. We took about 2 hours for 1.8km route. After 1 hour, 30 minutes walking in the woods, we were treated to lunch before the launching of the program.
The ceremony was officiated by the Honourable Senator Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun, Deputy Minister of Women, Family and Community and Ms Catherine Chew, Vice President of Resorts World Genting.The opening event was done by planting and watering of trees by the Honourable Senator Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun
Immediately after the opening ceremony, we were given the exposure and awareness of Eco Nature by Fadly Bakthiar, Program Director of Eco Knight. This disclosure also provide knowledge to participants about Reduce, Reuse & Recycle
At night, we were given materials for fashion show. We must make clothing from recyclable material for the fashion show competition the next day.
The experience of sleeping in the Long House? Unfortunately we chose to sleep in a tent. All bloggers unanimously wanted to sleep in a tent. Very good experience. My wife and son says they want to do it again soon.
Day 2
Early in the morning, there is morning run and exercise before we regroup to d Treasure Hunt activities.
Treasure hunt is challenging. Although our team did not win, we’re did our best.
This is exactly strengthen the relationships among group members.
The highlight of the second day was the fashion show. This is from our team.
And other teams. Our team got second place for the fashion show.
It’s fun to be with them in Back To Nature program 2015. May there be more programs like this. Thank you for the invitation Resort World Genting PR. Your hospitality was the best among the best.
