July 1st, we started a new term for Toastmasters activities. Keyforce Toastmasters Club had the first regular meeting on July the 4th for this new term(Jul. 1st 2022 - Jun. 30th 2023). We had an induction ceremony for new officers that was conducted by TM Stefano, the Division Director. After the induction ceremony, we had 3 wonderful prepared speeches and other regular contents. We got a good start and we hope that new term will be a another wonderful year!
On April 4th, we had a regular meeting online. This time, a new member, TM Yukie Muto was inaugurated! Welcome on board, Yukie ! If you are interested in joining us like Yukie, please feel free to contact us.
The second meeting of the month is supposed to be a hybrid meeting. However, the night of February 21st became online as only a few members was expected to come to the Tokyo Women’s Plaza. So we decided to change the venue to a Zoom room at the last minutes. Despite this sudden change, every member adapted to it and we had a successful session on 21st!
On February 7 th , the Keyforce Toastmasters Club had a Club International Speech Contest for this term online. We had three fantastic contestants. They were TM Shin Hosoda, TM Asako Nakashima and TM Yukiko Otsuka. All of them delivered great speeches and as a result TM Yukiko Otsuka won the 1 st prize. Yukiko will advance to the Area Contest on 26 th where she will contend for the Area Championship that leads to the Division Contest among other winners of other clubs. Let’s hope her victory on the 26 th .
The second meeting of the month is supposed to be a hybrid meeting. However, the night of January 24th became online as only a few members was expected to come to the Tokyo Women’s Plaza. I guess this is because of the icy coldness of that night. Nonetheless we had another successful session on 24th! *The word of the evening - "cacophony" provided by TM Jeffrey Anderson
