Triskelion Toastmaster Meeting Notes - March 18, 2010

Dan Pratt emceed the meeting.  Chief Judge was our own VP of Education, Ed Johnson.  Our other judges were Gary Fuller and Krystyna Noworyttaour VP of Membership.

Ahs Counter - Tony Pollack
Timer - Doris Anderson
Question “In what aspect of your
life have you been most
successful?”
First Speaker - Jeanne Rutgers
Second Speaker - Connie
Pshigoda
Third Speaker - Don Lyman
Fourth Speaker – Joe Abey

The contest winner was Connie, our club president. However, since she will not be able to participate in the Area M-3 contest on April 5, Don will represent us in the International Speech contest and Jeanne will be competing in the TT contest. Congratulations to our newest member Joe, who braved the crowd and showed that he indeed can also warm up a room with an impromptu speech. Joe Abey thought that he has been most successful in becoming at ease in both social and business gatherings. Although he’s mostly comfortable in small groups, he indicated that Toastmasters would help expand his comfort level in larger groups.

Following the four speeches, I had one other question for Ed Johnson and Gary Fuller to practice their extemporaneous styles during the regular Table Topic Speeches. Ed claimed that he could not live without fast Fourier transforms. Without them, we would not have the wave at Coors Field.
