The 150th Meeting, January 16th, 2021
The first club meeting for this year was
convened with members and guests sharing the same passion to learn, to grow,
and to have meaningful exchanges that will foster language competence and
dynamic leadership skills.
The warmth atmosphere which prevailed thru
the whole meeting was opened by the President TM S as she sent greetings from
the other side of the globe.
The Word Master, TM C encouraged everyone
to use the word “pragmatism/pragmatic” during the meeting. It is a word that is
not usually used or heard, but its meaning and usage can be much felt as we go
about our daily lives.
The “advance organizer” was the News
Master, TM K. She has made everyone focused on her mind-boggling question as to
whether “Carlos Ghosn, a Criminal or Not?” She gave a detailed and a fully
researched news update of Ghosn’s get-away escapade and his new lifestyle in
Lebanon.
The “heart of the meeting,” relied on the
Prepared Speeches, the Evaluation Session, and the Table Topics Session.
The 3 speakers, TMs K, N, and S delivered
delightful, informative, and had uplifting messages in their speeches.
The 3 evaluators, TMs F, C, and Y gave
praises as well as constructive suggestions for improvement in speech making
and delivery. This is the core of “being nurtured in toastmastering.”
The Table Topics Session as led by TM A
made the members and guests recall about the “New Year” in terms of
experiences, beliefs, and customs. It was good to hear various speakers talk on
certain assigned topics related to new year’s theme.
I congratulate first the TOD TM A for her
preparation, coordination, and good time management that made the meeting run
on smoothly. Next, the significant minor and major role toastmaster takers, TMs
K and T.
And
lastly, to all the members and guests who have made the 150th club
meeting a “GREAT” success and a rewarding experience!!!
