SKECHERS organised the second edition of the Skechers Friendship Walk at Marina Bay Sands Events Square on 31 August 2019 with more than 3,000 participants participating in the 4km non-competitive walk.

The Walk route brought participants through iconic landmarks and Singapore’s riverscape, such as the Merlion, Marina Bay Sands, Esplanade Theatres and ArtScience Museum, which was a perfect opportunity to pose for Instagram-worthy selfies amidst the picturesque city skyline. ‘Skechers Friendship Quest’ including activities like a Three-Legged Walk and Bishi Bashi.

During the Walk route, there were also team obstacles that required cooperation and teamwork which many had great fun completing with their family and friends, such as the Wheelbarrow Dash where participants dashed to the finish line with their buddy in the barrow, leading to lots of laughter and fun moments.

Highlights at the event village included a Dragon Playground bouncy castle, clearly a hit among the kids, photobooths of a real-life trishaw and the iconic orange and white bus stop, as well as traditional games like Carrom Board and Paper Ball Tic-Tac-Toe.

Skechers Singapore partnered the Association for Persons with Special Needs (APSN) to donate $1 with every registration received, to help supported children and people with special needs and which will be used in purchasing shoes for needy APSN Alumni.
