Calling all Ex-Bounders - Roll of Honour


Calling all Ex-Bounders - Roll of Honour
"Family of Outward Bound" - Connecting with the Past, Planning the Future
Outward Bound Malaysia, Lumut, is the second oldest such School in the world! To celebrate the 50th Anniversary of Outward Bound Malaysia, Lumut, the School is preparing a "Roll of Honour". This 'Roll of Honour" is to give recognition to our students, staff, and all those who have been part of us in our journey of life in our first 50 golden years. "Connecting with the Past, Planning the Future" has been chosen in line with our mission, and that is to bring back memories and to search for our 'lost' friends. The 50th Anniversary of Outward Bound Malaysia, Lumut, Malaysia has been the inspiration for the preparation of this "Roll of Honour".
Much has changed at Outward Bound Malaysia, Lumut since 1954 and yet the basic philosophy remains the same. More than 2,300 people attend our courses each year and that number is growing steadily every year - that's a lot more people for the Roll of Honour! As an ExBounder of Outward Bound Malaysia, Lumut, you are cordially invited to fill in our "Roll of Honour" database to help us to reconnect our past. Since the very first course in 1954, more than 100,000 students have gone through our courses. The records of most of our students have been lost or in need of up-dating. An ExBounder is defined by the School as any person who has completed any course of the School and received a certificate at the end of it.
You can play your part by filling in the database at our website at www.obslumut.org. The "Roll of Honour" will be published in our web site. A certificate will be sent to you after you have registered. News items from the School will be sent to you if you provide us your email address. We will also inform you through email about courses we are planning for ExBounders to reconnect with their experiences and to re-live their adventures at Outward Bound Malaysia. Please tell all your parents, relatives, friends, neighbours and colleagues who are ExBounders to register.
