Summerfest 2013 at Hard Rock Hotel Penang
Can you feel the heat these days? We did, so we set out last weekend to join the Summerfest Music & Fun Carnival 2013 at Hard Rock Hotel Penang to chill out and bring you, family fun and excitement.
It was a 2-day, music filled event held and organised by the Hard Rock Hotel Penang on 22 & 23 June 2013 from 1:00pm till 11:00pm. And what was so cool about it is that all proceeds went to charity. Penang Butterfly Farm was invited to be part of the event to make the event much more awesome!
If you were there, you would probably have seen and touched our wiggly friends. Hey, don’t get so grossed out! Here is just one of the many brave souls who tried out our “Bowl-O-Worms” challenge that weekend..
Our “Bowl-O-Worms” challenge is a first for us and for sure, it was a first for those who participated as well. The bowl was filled with mealworms, the larvae stage of the mealworm beetle (Tenebrio molitor), and no, they are not actually worms! The challenge was to look for the golden 50 sen coin that one of our staff had naughtily hidden within the mealworms. Once the challenger found it, they received a mystery gift.
Here’s a fun fact for you: Mealworms are cute and tasty…yes, I said tasty because they are actually edible. Whip up some eggs, sugar, flour, sprinkle some mealworms and put it in the oven for a few exciting minutes and tadah! You’ve got yourself a crunchy cookie! Dare to try?
Not only that, we also have conducted other fun stuff like, “Mealworm Foot Massage” for those brave enough to let the larvae nibble on their feet for 30 seconds. Our famous Bug-A-Boo was also there to test the visual abilities of those who dare play hide and seek with our well camouflaged Katydids.
Our challenges were as easy as 1,2,3 for some while for others, their courage was just no where to be found. So better luck next time!
Those who weren’t fans of the creepy crawlies that we laid out also had wonderful time with our “Make your Own Origami Butterfly” session…
It was just a few easy steps and they created colourful butterflies that they brought home with them as a memory of that Summerfest they had with Penang Butterfly Farm and Hard Rock Hotel.
We really have loads of fun there accompanied with performances by The Chubs, High Society, Allan G, Ray Cheong and many more.
Oh, Tacca and Toro made new friends there too!
