September is popularly known as the Harvest Month, and it is best manifested in the activities at Singapore Island Country Club (SICC), which is reaping the benefits from a busy programme that leads to the club’s Island Location.
Leading into the month was the club’s signature event, Around the World Golf & Gourmet Adventure 2025, which brought together members and corporate partners to celebrate international camaraderie through golf, gourmet cuisine and cultural showcases.
The unique event on Aug 30 teed off with golf and the teams had country names, with even Benin, Hawaii and Bhutan among the 36 nations.
The strongest team on paper, Team Cayman Islands, won the event, led by former professionals Lam Zhi Qun and Lam Chih Bing. They also took home Longest Drive prizes with their 320m and 300m efforts respectively.
Prizes were handed out during a gala dinner featuring global delicacies produced by SICC’s food and beverage team. Interactive booths added to the immersive experience with traditional practices, culinary techniques and artisanal crafts.
The event also stood out for a hole-in-one by Kim Mi Jeong on the Forest Hole 4, winning a diamond brooch worth $8,000.
The highlight of the evening was the grand lucky draw — a DongFeng Box car, won by Benny Tay, a director at Prudential Financial Advisory.
The theme of wonderful golf and memorable nights continues at the annual Rolex Golf Challenge on Sept 12 at SICC’s new course. The club is also preparing for the official opening of the Island Course on Sept 17, graced by Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong.
