We Serve: May 2013

Visit to SPCA

Following a successful completion of the second edition of PAWS week, members paid a visit to the organization they had raised funds for on the 4th of May 2013. Members played with the Dogs and Cats, helped out with a bunch of paper work and had a good bonding session with each other (and the dogs).

Credits to Leo Cheryl Leong and Leo Zhi Wyai full pulling off this treat for the club.
