27 September 2008 @ SMK Batu Lapan

SMK Batu Lapan was somewhere unfamiliar but eight of our members took the initiative to attend the Regional Council Committee (RCC) Meeting in said place on the 27th of September 2008 (Saturday). The registration fees of only RM5 included a breakfast, of a Milo packet and cake, and a lunch. (Such an odd time to be talking about registration fees… Haha!) Anyway, those who attended from our club were: Garry, Melissa, Sharon, Yi Peng, Kenny, Chee Fei, Joeanne, and Ann June.


Region 4 RCC Meeting for LEO's!


Recognize them? From left: Yi Peng, Joeanne, Melissa, Garry.

At 9.20 a.m. the RCC meeting for Leo’s was called to order by Lion Chan Kee Oi, of Region 4. The President of SMK Batu Lapan (Leo Vivien) led the Leo Pledge; and their secretary was appointed The Secretary for this 1st RCC meeting. Lion Chan Kee Oi made the roll call with about 20 Leo Clubs from Region 4 and the attending Lions. Of course, all Leo’s responded with three hearty roars!

Wow... It really was a big grand meeting. Imagine being in the presence of many other Leo's who are striving for what you strive and serving the community just as you are doing. It must feel great!
