Club President gives out "First-Timer" Ribbons to our Guests |
Thank you all for coming to this out of ordinary meeting! It was devoted entirely to Icebreaker speeches. We heard speeches from "veteran" Toastmasters to the newest members of our Club.
We had 13 members present and 2 first-time visitors. Cheryl came by invitation of Janet Krenn's. Mark was invited by Danita Fox. All in all, we heard 11 Icebreakers. Speakers were: Rick Boyer, Tim Tonkovic, Danita Fox, Magda Brugos, Juan Martinez, Wade Miner, Christy Gardner, Stan Dalziel, Stacey Wallace, Curtis Lassiter, and Janet Krenn. Toastmaster of the Evening was Nancy Hogg.
It was a great opportunity to learn a little more about fellow Toastmasters, their past and their visions for the future. Some things to remember from the speakers are:
- Discover and develop your strengths; do not focus on growing in your weak areas.
- Do what you're supposed to do; find your calling.
- Face adversity even when you feel afraid.
- If you believe you can do something, great things will happen!
- Face fears of public speaking! You can only get better.
The audience cast ballots on Best Speaker of the evening.
Christy Gardner's Icebreaker was voted BEST!
Congratulations, Christy!
See you next time!
Magda Brugos
OPS Club Secretary
