Greetings from your VP-Education on the eve of our milestone meeting No.450! Let us gear up for the auspicious meeting with all the enthusiasm and vibrancy we can!
Our Area Champion TMoDay Prasad Karkala is still prucing-up the Agenda which he assures to flash on the whatsapp screen shortly and will roll us at the meeting with the a unique milestone theme!
The theme of the meeting is ; MILESTONE ACHIEVEMENTS...
The Speakers are requested to garnish their prepared speeches with a pinch or two on the milestone achievements relevant to Toastmasters or in real life, if they can. All other assignees and other speakers of the day are encouraged to lace their pep talk with similar milestone spice!
Let us gain mileage from this milestone meeting and may our deliberations in those two hours with all the encouragement, cheer, applause and camaraderie build a monument of our speaking and leadership skills.
Let us welcome each other at "Skybiz" tomorrow by congratulating each other on this landmark meeting.
Be there to watch it all happen with the 'milestone' TMoDay in command.
Yours truly,

Dear Fellow-Toastmasters,
Re: KCT Meeting No.451 - Wed., 29Aug18, 7.15p.m. - 9.30p.m. @ KSC "Skybiz"
We are all set in two days time on Wednesday, 29th August, 2018, at 7.30 pm, to take-off with yet another Toastmasters meeting after our Club's 450th earlier this month.
TM Harish is all groomed up to take up the mantle on his first assignment as the Toastmaster of the Day. Let us give him the much needed support and encouragement.
Here's what we can expect to see and hear on the day:
- Three prepared Speeches, all on Pathways Project No.1, the Icebreaker, from a veteran Toastmaster and two others on the maiden Toastmasters speaking platform. Be there to hear their personal stories and ambitions!
- A Toastmaster of the day, catapulting his maiden assignment role in his unique style!
- A seasoned Table Topics Master, embarking on a triple role. Toastmasters do wear different hats!!!
- A masterclass General Evaluator, dissecting the length and breadth of our 451st meeting!
All above, with the usual Toastmasters paraphernelia withing the four walls of a Toastmasters meeting to develop our leadership and communication skills.
Let us all assemble early, latest by 7.15p.m. to take-off sharp at 7.30p.m.
Yes, yes, indeed our TMoDay is driving down direct from the deserts of Saudi Arabia to anchor KCT Meeting No.451 and steer us through yet another milestone-plus meeting!
As our Club President is in bereavement, Yours Truly will preside over the meeting.
Look out for the Meeting Agenda which will be posted by TMoDay, later today!
With best regards and looking forward to see you all roll the meeting with as much fun and learning we can.
Yours in Toastmastering,

Let's be all ears to the Speakers, one of whom is on debut and another repeating PW1 speech perfecting himself! Wow, way to go for these Toastmasters who have just joined and creating a ripple! A round of applause for them too. Three seasoned individual evaluators are evaluating them....let us listen to their evaluation too!!
We have another seasoned Speaker as the General Evaluator and he will analyse the entire meeting deliberations.
So then, let us march to "Skybiz" and be a part of this show to perform yet another Toastmasters Session during this Founder's month.

Dear Fellow-Toastmasters,
Greetings once again! Hope to see all of you at "Skybiz", KSC premises today evening for another Session of our Toastmasters Meeting with two Workshop presentations from our District Champion Speakers.
The Champion Speakers are guiding us towards the forthcoming Club Contest participation and its preparation - be there to learn and perform well at the Contests. One of our Speakers will also be evaluated by the Champion Speaker, so that we get to know first-hand how we can do the evaluation of a speech in a Contest! Wonderful to get to know - it's better than a rehearsal.
Attached is the final Agenda of the day. All ours to roll with every enthusiasm and applause we can give. Be there to be a part of the show.
As our VP-PR says, KCT rocks - let us show by action!!
Yours in Toastmasters,
