Earth Hour Youth Fest

In conjunction with Earth Hour, the Earth Hour Youth Fest held at Sunway Giza from 4.30pm to 9.30pm was attended by around 120 youths from various schools in Klang Valley. The brainchild of this event was 15-year old Ravyna Jassani. Our Eco Music Band was invited to put on a performance for this event, and since we would be performing for a noble cause, we readily agreed to do so.

A majority of our members arrived at the venue at around 8.00 pm, and were given custom-made bookmarks to give to members of the public in order to spread awareness about our worthy cause. A flash mob ensued, where every participant of the event was required to freeze in their respective spots for 5 minutes. After the flash mob, the official Earth Hour began, which was kicked off by a performance by our very own Eco Music Band. The enthusiastic crowd clapped, sang, and even danced along, which gave us loads of encouragement.

Despite the fact that it had been a long day for every single one of us, we didn't lament that fact at all, for in a single day, we managed to entertain the attendees of two events which were held for noble causes.
