Bettabite Competition 2007 cum 3rd Breeders' Competition

[nasha]

The competition will now be held at Yew Tee Community Centre, 20 Choa Chu Kang Street 52 (opposite De La Selle School).

Those who are taking buses can take Bus 302 from Choa Chu Kang or Yew Tee MRT Station.

The nearest MRT station is Yew Tee MRT Station.

For those who are driving, you can park at the Community Centre. I have went there once, there is a pretty big space for parking. However, if that is not sufficient, you can park at the nearby flats and walk over to the Community Centre.

I cant find a location map for the Community Centre but here's the URL to streetdirectory.com.
