We had a fun meeting focused humor and competition! Guest speakers Vladimir B. and Maria P. tried out speeches they hope to use in the humorous speech competition taking place in clubs throughout the area this fall.
- Meeting emcee (“Toastmaster”) Dave E. explained how the contest works and introduced the guest speakers.
- Vladimir told us about his joys and tribulations in marriage in “Soul Mates.”
- Maria described some of the awful dates she’s been through in her quest to find Mr. Right in “Bad Date 101.”
- After the audience enjoyed the prepared speeches, we had impromptu speaking practice led by Amara D., our Table Topicsmaster.
- Evaluators Joel H. and Beth G. gave 3-minute evaluations of the two speeches and then conducted round robin evaluation sessions to give the speakers a 360-degree view of their performances.
- General Evaluator Ray R. gave feedback on the meeting as a whole.
- Guest Chris decided to join the club! Welcome, Chris!
Business: The club is relocating to Merrill Gardens Northgate starting October 1st. See you there!
