CIGNA Lunchtime Toastmasters' Rokshana Ruma, Bidyadhara Agasti and John Parla captured Traveling Gavel Drew from MassMutual Toastmasters. We currently have 3 Traveling Gavels and are setting our sites for the 3 remaining Traveling Gavels. Capturing Traveling Gavel Drew has, so far, been our greatest challenge. We made 3 previous attempts but were thwarted each time by other clubs. But we were not to be denied. We are half way to our goal and no club has attempted to capture any of the Traveling Gavels in our possession. Socially Speaking, Pfizer Phrasemakers and Saratoga Care, we are coming. Now you see your Traveling Gavel. Now you don't.
