Club Project: Recycled Project (3rd & 4th Wave)

Our Leo Club of George Town Mutiara had successfully organised two waves of Recycled Projects on 9 January at Asia Height Apartment and 16 January 2011 at Halaman Kristal Apartment.

 Same as previous, we had collected recyclable items from the residents and sent to recycled center. These projects were successfully organised with the support from own club members and other Leo Clubs members, such as Leo Club of IPG Kampus Perlis; Georgetown City; Union High School; Chung Ling High School; and Chung Hwa Confucian High School. In total we had raised a sum of RM800 from these recyclable items.

The organising chairpersons for these two waves of Recycled Projects were Leo Loh Ee Ling (3rd Wave) and Leo Chan Wai Loon (4th Wave).

Club Activity: Leos Go Green Commander

On the evening of 19 December 2010, our Leo Club of George Town Mutiara and some other Leos had taken part in the Penang Chingay Parade. This Parade is an annual street parade held in Penang. Today, the parade has evolved into a massive multi-cultural and international event.

Following of the shinning result of Leo Day M.A.D. Eco Parade, we have been invited by Penang State Government to participate in this parade as Leos Go Green Commander, where we need to parade in go green eco costumes.

The parade started at Padang Brown at 7.30pm and passed through Datuk Keramat Road, Penang Road, Burma Road, Transfer Road, Sri Bahari Road, Chulia Street, Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling and Light Street and ended at the Esplanade.
