Hello, everyone. A quick recap of the Feb. 1 meeting: Savannah was Toastmaster, leading the meeting and offering up the word of the day “legacy.” Both speeches were excellent, with Bettina giving her second speech, entitled “The Power of Speech,” and Norris giving the revised version of his “AFL” speech, the second part of the two-part project that makes up the second and third Pathways speeches. Anu led the group through Table Topics, and Alvin and Angela provided thoughtful evaluations for our speakers. Karen kept time and tracked our ah’s and um’s. Lastly, Al Green from the district visited and invited the club to participate in the upcoming area speech competitions. If you would like more information on that topic, please talk to one of the club officers.
Roles for this week and next are below. Note that we have an opening for a Speaker for our meeting next Friday (Feb. 15). Please let that week’s Toastmaster (Steve) know if you would like to volunteer for that spot. And if you have a role this Friday (Feb. 8) but will be unable to attend, please let this week’s Toastmaster (Angela) know.
