Thursday's meeting was the first in a very long time with all roles assigned prior to the meeting. One key role, however, needed to be filled at the last minute. Our Toastmaster was feeling under the weather and Tom Schmid graciously stepped into the role moments before the start of the meeting. The pre-selected theme was "April Fool's - Is being a fool so bad?" I guess our scheduled Toastmaster played the best April Fool's joke!
Dawn Anderson took Toastmaster of the Day honors with her wonderful ice breaker speech, "Things I've Been Called." A funny, insightful story that reminded us all of the many roles we play in our lives.
Crissy did an amazing job of telling us about her guardian angel and why we are foolish if we do not pay attention to our own guardian angels in her speech "The Visit."
Sandy delivered a Toastmasters "canned" speech on mental flexibility and imprinted it with her own personality and style. Not an easy task, but done extremely well. And she has now earned Advanced Communicator Gold status!
Pamela Rediger challenged us with Table Topics that were very thought provoking and unique.
Congratulations to everyone on a spectacular, energetic and fun meeting!
