“The last meeting of the current club term was out of norm in terms of
agenda.
In other words, we skipped the usual Table Topic Speech Session. Instead,
we had an Effective Evaluation Workshop conducted by a veteran member
having a Toastmaster experience of over ten years.
The Workshop as expected turned out to be extremely useful and inspiring.
It was particularly so in view of the fact that evaluating other speaker’s
speech is an ultimate impromptu speech.

The four prepared Speeches were truly diversified thanks to the three
excellent speeches at
different levels from Competent Communication Manual and the superb fourth
from Advanced Manual.

It was phenomenal that six guests visited us including three for the second
time and enjoyed the glimpse of our dynamic meeting agenda.”

“The meeting began with the Business Session in which the new club
officials were announced.
It heralded the upcoming new club term effective 7/01.

The Table Topic Speech Session conducted by a veteran member was
phenomenally witty and humours.

The next Prepared Speech Session turned out amusing of the first romantic
speech by a young member and touching and inspiring of the subsequent three
speeches by seasoned members.
All well evaluated by the experienced Toastmasters.

Three guests enthusiastically expressed their mindfulness of the need to
train themselves in the environment like ours.”
