169th Gavel Meeting

“God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers!” an adorable flyer invited Gavel members to wake up their sweet and lovely memories of their mothers. Mothers’ Day at Gavel, the 169^th Gavel meeting was held at room no 215, Sumanadasa building on 16^th of May 2013. The President, Pasan Pethiyagode called the meeting to order. Everyone rose for the national anthem. Then the introduction for the meeting was given by the President. Next the Toastmaster for the Mothers’ Day meeting was called upon to the stage. The Toastmaster was an inspired member as well as an emerging speaker of the club, Vibhanu Archchige. Taking everyone all the way down in the memory lane he put up the round robin topic as “The day I made my mother smile…” Everyone had their different stories to be shared. Then in order to conduct the table topic session the Table Topic Master was introduced. He was none other than the current guider of the Gavel family beloved Mr. President. Since one hour, one day or even one year is not enough to express our feelings and gratitude towards our mothers, stage was not able to take rest for a second at the table topic session. After taking the evaluators’ reports of that session, the Toastmaster took the control of the meeting again. Then the Grammarian’s report and General Evaluator’s report were presented to the meeting. After that the Gavel was handed over back to the President.

It was the end of another wonderful Gavel meeting.
