Pasir Ris Rock tower opens
Monday, 8th March 2010
Rock climbing enthusiasts can now make use of the new climbing installation at the People's Association (PA) Water-Venture adventure sports centre in Pasir Ris. Also known as the Community Tower, it cost $450,000 to build with about $200,000 being subsidised by the Singapore Totalisator Board. The tower was officially opened by Deputy Prime Minister Teo Chee Hean yesterday.
The tower is open to the publice and costs $5 per entry, with equipment such as harnesses and helmets provided. Basic climbing courses start from $38. To date, there are four such outdoor adventure towers here, including those at Outward Bound Singapore and Safra Yishun Club's Adventure Sports Centre.
