A toastmasters meeting has 3 segments:

·         1^st segment     - Prepared speeches is equivalent of presenting chocolates. The taste lingers even after the speakers are done with their speeches. Speakers deliver their speeches according to the objectives defined in a project manual.

·         2^nd segment     - Table Topics … which is equivalent of presenting colorful flowers. A set of colorful speakers are going to do some impromptu talking, and will spread their fragrance with their short speeches on table topics given by the table topics master.

·         3^rd segment     - Evaluation… which is equivalent of presenting greeting cards. While the taste of chocolates or the fragrance of flowers last only for a short time… the Greeting Cards allow you to cherish the memory of your valentine for a longer time. Similarly, the Evaluators are going to share with you their feelings and thoughts on the speakers’ performance, orally and also in writing.

We are going to have an evening of education, entertainment and excitement … an evening of sweet, and fragrant memories to cherish.
