Basket ball & Barbeque

 
  Basket Ball Game   Barbeque Grill and Potluck  
       
 

The rains stopped just in time for our boys' varsity basketball team to play our visitors. The visiting club Scorpio played well and it was a close game during the first half. Later on,  our team's skill and experience coupled with good ball handling and endurance carried the day and  BAIS won 71 to 66. It was a close and exciting game. Immediately after the game, Eric Maxey was the emcee and supervised a paper airplane contest. Boys, girls, moms and dads went up to the 2'nd floor and launched their airplanes. It was spectacular to see a cloud of white floating down from the second floor balcony. A dad, Garth Friesen, won for the guys and a mom, Sarah Beeson, won for the ladies. Maybe parents do know more than their children! Eric also tested the science knowledge of one of our former students, Jamie Lewis, compared to our present day students: Rainer Liem, Greg Coles and Joy Park. Joy and Greg won; sorry, Jamie. Everyone enjoyed the basketball game and the activities that followed it.  

All the excitement of the game made everyone hungry. The senior class grilled hotdogs and hamburgers. A potluck was also provided. It was a relaxing time to eat, mingle and visit with some of the guests who came for the celebration.

Brunch

 
  The brunch on Saturday morning, April 14, provided a relaxed atmosphere for out-of-town guests to renew friendships and catch up on each others' lives. Former students and staff came from England , Malaysia , Canada , Germany and various places in Indonesia , supplying unending conversation and lots of laughter. "You were always one of the big girls who I could never deign to know, so it's a bit strange talking to you now as equals," chuckled Sarah Heath Williams to Krisy Kuhns Maxey, 6 years her senior. After a couple hours of conversation, coffee, and piles of food, some walked over to Jl Gunung Agung for a tour of the present BAIS campus. Joey Beeson , the current director, found that his intended 20-25 minute tour lasted 3 times that long while the group reminisced and exchanged stories. The morning's activity ended with a bus ride out to the new BAIS property at Kota Baru Parahyangan to catch a glimpse of the future and envision a celebration of the next 50 years.

Banquet (show all photos)

 
  On Saturday night, over 100 BAIS teachers, parents, students, and alumni gathered at Bumi Sangkuriang Club to celebrate our past, present, and future.  Jamey Lewis, as our emcee, guided us through an evening of entertainment. Our four guest speakers, Lelia Lewis, Alec Valley, Wayne Thompson, and Joe Hale brought laughter, tears, and inspiration as they shared their memories of our school and their hopes for our future.  The Club provided a delicious four-course dinner as we were entertained with a DVD from our Korean students, special music by Jamey & Cindy Lewis, a glimpse at our future campus from Larry LeGrande, and a DVD helping us to grasp the vision of NICS (Network of International Christian Schools), our supporting organization.  It was an evening which brought wonderful closure to our BAIS 50 th Anniversary Weekend.
