Contest Chair Frank Connelly was the emcee for the contest, Rick Boyer was Chief Judge. Once contest rules were noted and explained, Rick Boyer called for the “contest to begin!”
Competitors for Evaluation Contest: Curtis Lassiter, Janet Krenn, Lauren White and Allen Foretich. John Harmon was the target speaker for the competitors and he spoke about "transitions of life". All evaluators did a wonderful job giving positive feedback and offering suggestions that will enhance John's speech.
Competitors for Humorous Speech Contest: Jean Smith, Dr. June Montgomery, Stan Dalziel and Christy Gardner.
After the Evaluation Contest we were entertained by the four contestants delivering Humorous Speeches. Christy made us laugh about hurricane Irene, and Stan delivered a double wammy of both laughter and reflection with his speech about bucket lists. Jean took us down memory lane with her as she shared some funny family stories and Dr. June's speech made us laugh about the power of mind.
Congratulations to all club members who competed in contests, and a hearty "thank you" to the other club members who worked behind the scenes before the meeting as well as those at the meeting fulfilling valuable roles as timers, ballot counters, and judging.
Winners for each will move on to Area Contest on Saturday September 10th, 1-3p at ODU Workforce Development Center.
