今天的活動將領導俱樂部的成員帶到了當地的療養院，在那裡他們照顧精神殘疾和受傷的人。學生帶來了他們在上一課程中製作的聖誕飾品，並作為禮物送到養老院。療養院將出售這些裝飾品每個NT100，為療養院病人籌集資金。 

學生們與病人進行了一場比賽，然後為他們提供一個籃球展演作為娛樂。我們的贊助者「佳湘麵包」為活動提供小點心。 

學生們一起騎自行車參加本次的活動。

Today's activity brought the members of the Leadership Club to a local nursing home, where they took care of mentally disabled and injured people. The students brought the Christmas ornaments that they made in the previous class, and gave them to the nursing home as a gift. The nursing home will sell the ornaments for NT100 each to raise money for the nursing home patients.

The students played a game with the patients, and then provided a basketball exhibition for their entertainment. Our sponsor, Chia Hsiang Bakery, provided snacks for the event.

The students rode their bicycles together to get to the event.

Sigang District Government Meeting

西港區公所邀請我們在年度會議上向地方里長與市政府行政代表介紹我們的精英領導俱樂部。 Tony Coolidge和國中教務主任歐陽丞介紹了這個社團的運作程序，並展示了一個Powerpoint演示。這是一個很好的機會，讓地方領導人與社區分享這個計劃，期待有更多的力量進來。

The Sigang District Government representative invited us to introduce our Elite Leadership Club to the local leaders during a community meeting. Tony Coolidge and Dean Ouyang introduced the program and showed a Powerpoint presentation. It was a good opportunity to ask local leaders to share the program with the community.

今天的領導俱樂部享受了一個特殊的戶外教學。他們去了一個幫助精神殘疾人的社區中心。這個社區中心提供了一個支持性的環境，使精神殘疾人可以學習和工作。他們實際上可以做簡單的工作，並且在那裡他們可以為自己賺錢。它由幾個關愛社會工作者經營。

Today's Leadership Club enjoyed a special outing. They went to a community center that helped mentally disabled people. This community center provides a supportive environment where the mentally disabled can learn and work. They actually can do simple jobs, where they can earn money for themselves. It is run by several caring social workers.

The Leadership Club students were taught how to make Christmas decorations by hand. The social workers gave a presentation about the community center. Then, they provided materials and directions on how to make the beautiful Christmas ornament out of colorful plastic beads and fishing line. Most of the students were focused and achieved their goal easily, while some needed help. There were enough social workers and volunteers to help almost everyone complete their task.

Several volunteers also joined the group to help them with their new experience. With their help, the students were able to learn more easily. And the volunteers added to the warm atmosphere.

The ornaments will be given to patients in a nursing home during the next Leadership Club meeting. Materials for the ornaments were paid for by a nearby business. This shows that local businesses can support projects that can change the lives of young people in the community.
