Family Day at a Dragon Fruit Farm

In conjunction with Agong’s birthday holiday on 5th June 2010, a Family Day for Lions and Leos was organised by the Club.  The Lions and their family members and Leos totalling 28 people visited Lion Tang Won Fak’s dragon fruit farm at Gambang near Kuantan.

At the farm, Lion Tang showed and briefed everyone on the operations of the dragon fruit farm and also brought the members present for a tour visit into the bird nest building located within the farm. 

He also arranged for a dragon fruit harvesting competition whereby contestants were divided into two groups, ie the Lions and the Leos.  Prior to the competition, Lion Tang demonstrated the harvesting technique required.  Teams were given an area to harvest the fruits within a time frame. The Lions team won the competition which harvested approximately 37.5kg of dragon fruits. 

Everyone had an enjoyable time at the farm, which was followed by a pot luck party complemented with dragon fruits as well as durian brought by a Member.
