Ben & Jerry’s CHUNKFEST 2011

Fortunately for us, we managed to secure a FairBooth during B&J’s ChunkFest 2011!! We were raising fund for Boys Town as they really need the Moo-lah to build a new hostel for the boys.

Our booth’s name was “Share A SMILE” and we sold traditional toys, soft toys, tee shirts and lots of balloons.

So while we were getting our FairBooth ready, B&J’s peeps were briefing their platoon of volunteers. They really got a lot of help! ^^

It is only during ChunkFest then can we try out flavours that are usually not available in Singapore. They got to be flew in all the way from Vermont, USA – Vermont’s Finest!

There were many games for people to try such as the “Pin the Pint” (putting the pieces together while being blindfolded) and “Pint Dunkin” (if the ball hit the metal rod, somebody is going to get wet).

There were music throughout the whole event and you know what, they were performed by local bands. Cool huh… Other than enjoying the ice creams, we got entertained by local talents!

B&J’s merchandise were also on sales! Oh man… they were MOO-ly good!!!

Presenting one of the teams for the VERMONSTER CHALLENGE –

Team FUZZY WUZZY!!!

Well, one of my team mates, Ben, injured himself while preparing for the challenge. Hopefully he recovers soon.

We didn’t win. The team who won finished the 20 scoops in 1 minute 13 seconds = 73 seconds. I have no idea how they did it but COWGRATULATIONS!!!!

15,000 people visited ChunkFest 2011 and I am now looking forward to ChunkFest 2012 already.

Ending with a quote by Jerry,

Bestest thing that happened to me in 2010!

The Bestest thing that happened to me in 2010 was to fly all the way from Singapore to the hometown of Ben & Jerry’s in the United States of America!! The flight was really tiring but hey, this was a priceless experience and was totally worth the long hours on the plane!!!! ^^ And this was the first time I travelled overseas with my sis!

We finally arrived at Vermont and it sure was cold…. but not that cold…. especially since we were well-trained in the shopping malls in Singapore. Cold? What cold? No problem…

 

The hotel room was very warm and cozy and look at the toiletries…

There were even cookies to make us feel at home…

Alright, then we had our first dinner in the USA…
