Meeting Highlights - March 28th, 2013

by Nikita Kazakov and Eric Dunham

Congratulations to the following members who by simply submitting their membership renewals prior to the drop of the gavel at last nights meeting (and by the luck of the draw), won the drawing. All who submitted their renewals before 7pm last night were included in the drawing. Our visitor, Michelle, drew the winning names and they are:

Bill Morgan – Winner of the $10 Toastmaster International Gift Certificate
Raani Varma – Winner of the Hardbound Toastmaster logo Notebook
Precy Hilario – Winner of the Toastmaster logo with the Smedly quote mug

Today’s meeting was different because we had one speaker, and extended table topics. Our Toastmaster, Ashley Jones, gave the audience random questions and people were randomly called to talk about the topic from 4 to 5 minutes. This was great training in impromptu speaking and is valuable to to speakers who are put on the spot. Elaine Chancellor facilitated the table topic session as the “Master”.

Our speaker was Elaine Chancellor, who gave us a great background on country music and its history (CC#7). Her evaluator was Michelle DeVore.
