Happy New Year

The Prairie Schooners Toastmasters Club started off the new year with a bang, the theme of the meeting was New Years Resolutions.  Great turn-out of members with everyone giving their views on New Year Resolutions and what they may be - one can only conclude that we have very interesting members in our club.  We also had a guest - Abbas, who has only been in country 6 months and wishes to set up business here.  Abbas will be joining our club and will shortly be reaping the benefits of Toastmasters.

One of our newest members Jinzhe delivered her icebreaker.  We learned that Jinzhe was born in China and is an artist, an attribute that her mother realized when she was only 100 days old!

The second speech was delivered by Jane whose task it was to give a speech in praising a person (living or dead).  Jane chose to praise another Toastmaster member of the club (Marloes) and the audience learnt a few extra character traits of Marloes.


The impromptu session (speaking with no preparation) was run by Rathan who prepared some rather difficult questions but all had fun.
