HKUAAO arranged for a webinar on February 19,2022. The webinar – Bordeaux Red Wine 101 was well received by approximately 50 attendees, including members of HKUAAO and other Ontario HKJU alumni associations.

Notice of the webinar was sent to all members of HKUAAO via eNotice 2 weeks prior to the date of the webinar.  Our representatives on the JU committee also sent notice to other Ontario HKJU alumni associations.  The presentation materials were prepared by the speaker Romeo Au, with the assistance of Maggie Poon. 

The webinar started at 3 pm on Saturday February 19, 2022 via Zoom.  After a short introduction by HKUAAO President Tim Cheng, our speaker Romeo Au made an excellent presentation covering the following:

a)     Recap of Wine Making Processes

b)     How to Read Wine Label

c)     Wine Glossary

d)     Bordeaux Wine Regions

e)     How to Appreciate

Romeo’s presentation was finished in approximately 45 minutes.  It was followed by the Q & A session.  Romeo answered a number of questions raised by the attendees, with the assistance of the moderator, Dennis Au-Yeung.

The webinar finished smoothly at around 4:30 pm.

HKUAAO’s mentorship program Director Raymond Leung organized An Introduction to Alpine Skiing in Ontario 101 Zoom event on January 30 2022 evening at 8 – 9 p.m. for all winter 2022 semester HKU Mentees and interested Mentors. Those registered under the NewComers Support Program were also invited.  The presentation was given by our immediate past President Lilian Ma with technical support provided by Maggie Poon and Verdi Yau, our membership and communication Board Directors.   It was also attended by our President Tim Cheng as well as some ten other participants.

Lilian is an avid skier with over 50 years of experience in skiing and snowboarding.  She is still currently teaching skiing every winter with the High Park Ski Club in Toronto for over 22 years now.   She is a Canadian certified ski instructor and coach.  During the presentation she went through the basics of the ski equipment and clothing necessary for an enjoyable experience in the downhill skiing sport.   She also emphasized on the safety precautions, etiquettes and code of conduct on the hill, as well as the skills required to enjoy the sport in Canada.  She noted the importance of taking proper ski lessons right from the beginning from CSIA ( Canadian Ski Instructors Alliance) certified instructors who can be found in all Ontario Ski Resorts, as downhill skiing, being a fast moving sport, has some inherent risk, but taking lessons will greatly minimize the risk  and the participants can enjoy the thrill of skiing right from the start if taught the proper skills needed to deal with the physics of this fast moving sport.  She also briefly introduced the various resorts that are close by, and the COVID protocols in place, so  new comers can try out skiing in Ontario this winter as it is one of the few things open to the public during the pandemic.  

Questions and answers followed and Lilian welcomes any further questions which can be directed to her later.

If you haven’t registered yet and know you are available on Sunday, please register with me at romeoyhau@hotmail.com so your name can be put in the lucky draw. However, if you are still not sure and can find time to watch the show on Nov 7, you are welcome to login the link and enjoy.  

Enclosed please find the program rundown for your reference.  On behalf of HKUAAO, I would like to thank our Helen Woo and Amy Lo once again to perform the virtual 4-hand piano piece- Radetzky Marsch.  It sounds easy but with Helen is in Toronto and Amy in Ottawa, it is much more difficult than we thought as they have to make effort to synchronize the audio track and other technical issues. I am looking forward to the performance.

Performance of UST (The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology Alumni Ontario) is a 2D/3D music + animation show. If you want to experience 3D effect, you need a 3D eye glasses for this. You can pick this up in Teresa Tang Wong’s World Financial Group Office at 9078 Leslie St Unit #4, Richmond Hill, ON L4B 3L8 between 9:30 am. – 3:30 pm. until Friday. Please call them in advance to make sure they will reserve a pair for you. We can still watch the 2D version but I am sure it will be more fun to watch in 3D.  

I hope you all will have a wonderful afternoon on coming Sunday in JU萬千楓采嘉年華. 

Please note this is only for reference and actual programs time may change without notice.
