Well, let's get down to the details of the trip. For those of you who don't know, the Leo Club of Anderson chartered a bus down to KL to support our Vice President Leo Jeremy Goh @ Leo Idol! A number of the Leo Clubs in Ipoh, namely Leo Clubs of Sultan Idris Shah, St. Bernadette's Convent, Sam Tet and St. Michael's Institution were invited to tag along on the bus. Approximate 40 people were on the bus, including Lion Mary Goh!
Everybody gathered @ Medan Kit at 7.30 a.m. Early huh? The bus departed for KL at 8, and reached KL at 11, then to Sungei Wang Plaza @ 12. We had free time till 3.15p.m., and most of the Leos went shopping. Leo Club of Anderson & SMI, however, helped set up things for Leo Idol! Way to go!
At 4.00p.m., the time has come, and Leo Idol starts! In the first round! All the contestants performed a song of their own choice. After that, we had 2 great performances, one from Aesar Mustaffa and the other from Ashraf! After that, the results of round 1 were announced. Jeremy & Andrew proceed!
For the second round, both finalists were required to sing "I Pledge", written by Lion Alan Thoo a.k.a. Ah Tu! Following was a moment of charity. Baki Zainal called out Lion Shirley Koh, Fundraising Director of the National Kidney Foundation, along with Azizi Zakaria, Teen Ambassador of NKF. Both of them gave a short message the importance of taking care of our kidneys, and the objectives of NKF. After that was the mock cheque presentation, where the Leo Clubs of Region 3 & 4 presented cheques to mark their donation and support worth RM1,400 and RM 590 respectively to NKF.
Next was a performance by Dina, who performed 2 numbers for the audience, namely, "If I Ain't Got You" and "Please Don't Stop the Music". After that, the results were announced!!!
LEO IDOL CHAMPION - JEREMY GOH
1st Runner-Up - Andrew Ng
2nd Runner-Up - Teoh Gini
After the results, all 5 finalists sang "I Pledge" together!
After the event wraps up, the Leo Club of Anderson helps to clear up the place. At 7.00p.m., everyone heads out to buy their own dinner back to the bus. The bus departed @ 8 p.m., and reached Ipoh at 11p.m. Indeed, it was time well spent.
