He urged the Gavaliers to utilize this opportunity and realize and achieve their full potential. He thanked the Development Activities subcommittee and his colleagues on the managing committee for their efforts and support in starting of this club.

The counselors of the club, TM Sunil Shenoy, TM Mohan Kamath and TM Mahesh Prabhu addressed the gathering and shared their experiences on the benefits of effective communication with everyone present.

The Ice breaker speeches were given by Gavelier Smrithi Prabhu and Gavelier Meghana Bhat. Both the Young speakers were full of confidence and charmed the audience present with their speeches. These speakers were evaluated by Shruti and Yash from the Falcon Gavel Club.

The inaugural meeting had an educational session by DTM Uma Radhakrishnan, a  toastmaster for more than 11 years now. Mrs. Radhakrishnan spoke with emphasis on the art of evaluation and effective ways to encourage one to start and continue public speaking. CC/CL Ramnath conducted the other educational session on “Table Topics”. He did it in a very informal way which made the children to volunteer speaking on the table topics without realizing about it. Each and every one present in the hall thoroughly enjoyed this informal session.
