Grand Toastmasters Club Officers Meeting & Training

It was a busy day. I got up early to pack for my two-days traveling in Wanhua. I was feeling excited! It was before 9:30 when I arrived at the Duckstay Saturday morning, January 31st. I was, of course, the first customer.

Grand Officers Meeting started at 10 o'clock sharp. Six officers and deputy officers attended the meeting, including President Zoy Juang, DeputyVPE Eric Hsu, VPPR Sherry Li, Treasurer Betty Lin, Secretary May Hwang, and Deputy Secretary Spring Lee. The main theme was about how to activate Grand's social media (Grand's blog and facebook) on internet. We discussed various issues about documenting regular meetings and promoting club's activities to members and friends. Many thanks to Zoy for treating officers the brunch at Duckstay.

After meeting, we saw the exhibition of Illustrator Michael Leu's old Wanhua and Taipei. We visited lodging facilities at Duckstay, shower rooms for ladies and gentlemen, coin laundry, hostel rooms. Duckstay is newly opened hostel in Taipei with a capacity of 108 beds (NT$680 per bed per night). I like the black curtain surrounded each bed to keep the privacy! I like the huge and spacy residents' corner downstairs for social events.

Division C&H's 2nd clubs officers training took place at Soochow University Taipei campus, within the walking distance from Duckstay. With my scooter, I could get there in a swift. As I was interested in the Wanhua tour event sponsored by Duckstay in the afternoon. I traveled between two places. I was at the opening, Q&A, group photo of the club officers training. Most of the time. I was in a crowd of visitors of Wanhua alleys What a busy golden lady Toastmaster!

After Division C&H's club officers training, I invited Granders and a few Toastmasters to golden ladies Toastmasters slumber party at Duckstay. But all decided to call it a day. So I returned to Duckstay by myself to check in and to wait for other golden ladies for dinner. For a party queen, I just began my day of excitements.
