Date : 5th April 2009
Venue : Hydro Hotel,
Batu Feringghi, Penang
Members of Gurney Toastmasters enjoyed the best of Hydro Hotel's Buffet Sunday Hi-Tea, especially the pudding! ehem..and we meant it!
It is a 'ritual' for a new member to be inducted into the family of any Toastmasters Club. (Normally, induction is held on a yearly basis during Joint Installation Banquet dinner but we do have our own induction at the club level. )
This time round, our induction coincides with the F1 Sepang Race 2009 and we were so spoilt to be inducted at Hydro Hotel by the poolside.

Three new members, one 'used-to-be' member and five Gurney Toastmasters members gathered for a Sunday Buffet Hi-Tea with a plan, not to take over Hydro Hotel but to spread the goodness of Toastmasters in the hotel itself! Nothing was hard to do as the General Manager himself was inducted that day.
