Thought for the day     TM Mizutani

 The last Thursday was a kind of special. Before the day, people
prepared pieces of cheese, a loaf of bread, and wine glasses.
It was the open day for Beaujolais Nouveau. I guess some members enjoyed it.

Gathering these stuffs, people produce the day more special, romantic,
and memorial. It's one way to enjoy the life.

As same as，
we Tsukuba Toastmasters prepare for and fulfill meeting assignments every
time.

Here there are president, TOD, prepared speakers and supportable members.
So we are on ready to produce happy today's meeting and to encourage
our members!

Let's enjoy our joyful time.
