June 28th Lamorinda Toastmasters Meeting Diary


Meeting Notes:

Lovely Elizabeth L presided over our meeting for the evening with the theme of Independence Day.

Tara opened the prepared speeches part of the meeting by sharing the Philly Tawk of her childhood. Who knew "Yo" means "Hello" in Philly? Well researched, prepared and presented, Tara kept us laughing throughout her Speech 7 from the Competent Communicator manual.

Jennifer presented Speech 6, Vocal Variety, from the Competent Communicator manual. As you can imagine, her speech, Conversations with a Three Year Old, gave her plenty of material with which to vary her volume, tone, and to use her voice expressively.

Thomas gave us a club status report with his Speech 2 from the Competent Communicator manual. For the seventh year in a row, our club has earned the right to be called a Distinguished President's Club Toastmaster's club because of the hard work done by our members. 

Newest new member Michael M  gave his ice breaker titled "Career Stuff." A seasoned Toastmaster with a strong set of speaking skills, we look forward to hearing more from Mike in the future. 

Join Toastmaster Greg F , and all of your fellow Toastmasters tonight at the Temple.
