Today’s meeting was more civil than not, and was executed with as much decorum as Dan’s laid-back style could muster. Krystyna presented the word of the day. Connie, our club president, told the tale of her predecessors’ struggles long ago, and how their story impacts her life still today. Dave Tzrupek, graciously filling in as evaluator, performed an excellent assessment of her speech. It was great to see Dave again!
Julie Williams, (much thinner for some reason) who we were also very glad to see, presented table topics. (Congratulations to Julie on the birth of her second child.) In harmony with the theme of decorum and civility, she touched on situations at the movies, in traffic, e-mails, cell phone use, and at the grocery store. Dave won best table topic speaker.
Connie led a discussion of club business in which she shared feedback from our Area Governor visit, new materials for charting progress, etc. Dan should have raised his hand a little bit more, but most members present exhibited good manners.
We should mention that one of our club members, Nathan Wilkes, recently introduced President Obama at a Town Hall Meeting in Grand Junction.
