On the 16th of July 2010, it was the first time where the Lions International District 308B2 Lions Cabinet held its first gathering for a retreat where cabinet officers were given a chance to get to know one another, especially there were several new faces in the Cabinet! This started out with an ice-breaker game and later followed by a speech by our new District Governor, Hudson Hah.
Inevitably, this session has proven useful as it gives a generic outline of the expectation and directions of the district, as well as created a platform of reminders on the roles for returning Cabinet Officers and provided valuable information to new ones too! With experience trainers and speakers like PDG Kenneth Saw, Lion Shirley Koh and DC Lion Dr. Anthony Ng, the open-floor talks were very fruitful.
PDG Kenneth Saw touched on the Protocol topic while Lion Shirley spoke about the roles and expectations of Cabinet Officers in general.
The closing of the session before the distribution of Lions Cabinet T-Shirts was a brief Q&A session to sum up the talks of the day. Thereafter, fellow Lions were given an opportunity to take a rest before the Fellowship dinner at Onn Kee Chicken & Beansprout, Ipoh's famous local delicacy. Ipoh is famed for this where tons of tourists throng the Ipoh Town at night for a sumptuous dinner, and these restaurants are always full!
The dinner ended at approximately 9.00pm. Everyone is eager for the 2nd day of the retreat and the Inauguration Dinner of District Governor Hudson and the installation of the International Lions Clubs District 308B2 Lions Cabinet the following day.
