Oldest Club in District 308, ANDERSON LEO CLUB, celebrates its 38th Anniversary!!!

The Oldest Leo Club in Malaysia, Singapore & Brunei, or better known to all of us as the Multiple District 308..Anderson Leo Club (Ipoh), recently celebrated it's 38th Anniversary in a very special way!

Many clubs in the District usually hold such an occasion in their own school hall with loads of activities... or hold an anniversary in a hotel or cafeteria somewhere!

Well, for the Anderson Leo Club, they chose to think out of the box this time round.. and instead of having a big bang celebration, they hosted their Anniversary outside their school... at the Jelapang Old Folks Home! How much more meaningful an anniversary can get by doing so?

Jeremy Goh, Vice President of the Club said, "It is very important that we trace our past records. Recently, I looked at some of our old reports and found out that our seniors in the 1980's actually visit this home very frequently.. ". He added, "By holding our 38th Annversary at the Home, we not only share our joy and happiness with the old folks here, but also remind our members that it is very important that we take good care of our parents in the future and should work very hard so that we can take care of them at their old age..."

Organizing Chairperson, Marcus Choo also added that he was delighted that about 40 members turned up for the event with past Leo members from the club, who are now Lions (Ln Alan Thoo, Ln Kenneth Yeoh, Lion Justin Khoo).. also came and joined in the fun!

Jeremy and Marcus also sang 2 songs in the Karaoke session later. Other members also grouped up to dedicate songs to the old folks to bring music to their ears!
