Joint Meeting with Den-en Toshi Toastmasters Club / TMOD Meeting Report
Our Joint Meeting by Yokohama TMC and Den-en Toshi TMC has been successfully done on Dec 20th, which was a last meeting in 2014.
Although it was a heavy rainy day, many members gathered the venue and the meeting went very well and finish without any issue!
The meeting them was ‘2014!!’ During my preparation of joint meeting, I had asked all role takes about my question, which was ‘What was your special event or what was your happiest moment in 2014?’
Another theme was ‘Christmas’, so many members worn Christmas costume and some members were dressed in Red, Green or While. So, the atmosphere in the meeting room was really bright like Christmas!!
The meeting started on time by opening remarks from Yokohama TMC President, TM A.T.
At the begging of Table Topic Session, Santa Claus appeared!!! And….. he was TM Y.O of Den-en Toshi TMC. He really looked like a real Santa Claus he gave us a lot of fun during the Table Topic Session. Another Table Topicmaster was TM T.T and both of them gave us the questions related to a meeting them.
Today, we had 6 Prepared Speakers. From Yokohama TMC, TM M.O, TM T.S and TM H.A challenged to be a Speaker. I am sure that they were very nervous because the meeting room was very big and more than 30 members in the room. TM M.O did a great speech even it was her 2nd speech and she shown us many pictures of Ukraine using PC. TM T.S gave us a tips how to survive in our social field and explained his way with a philosophy. I enjoyed listening his real story and his experiences. The advanced speech by TM H.A was about the book written by Sheryl Sandberg. She not only explain the story which she read but also explained what she leaned from the book and how she felt. She did a wonderful job!!
Not only 3 speakers but also evaluators and all support role takes did great jobs during the meeting!! Without all helps by supporters, the meeting wouldn’t run well.

The meeting ran smoothly according to the agenda and Den-en Toshi TMC President TM K.O made a closing remarks and our joint meeting finished on time!!
