What a crazy week it has been for Prairie Schooners Toastmasters. Even though it was a short work week, it was still crazy.
The week started of with our Area Speech Contest, Tuesday Evening. Both Jane and Richard were up against stiff competition and were successful in their efforts to represent the club and Area 47 at the next level of competition, the Division Contests.
Wednesday happened to be our regular club meeting at noon. It was a bit of a panic as we had moved most of our club material over to our new meeting location at Federated Cooperatives LTD. Which is just across the street from our previous space. Mark did a wonderful job with is second speech all about our relationship with food. It was a good thing we only had one speaker as we needed the extra time to get ourselves organized at FCL. I am sure next week will go smoother and we all like the extra space in the new digs.
Saturday afternoon was also a bit of a blur as the Division contests were on. There was even stiffer competition for Jane and Richard. The best speakers from six Areas were there trying to take home the hardware and bragging rights of being the Division E Table Topics winner or Humorous Speech winner.
Congratulations to Jane who placed second in this tough field with a tough question. Unfortunately Richard didn't place in the top 3 spots. But he did represent Prairie Schooners and Area 47 well and provided the audience with a few laughs at his brothers expense.
Now that the contest season is almost wrapped up our club will be getting back to quality meeting with an aim to help the members meet their individual goals.
Hopefully I will see you next Wednesday when you visit.
