What's Happening Next Meeting?

Updates: November 16 Meeting

Hello Fellow Toastmasters!

I want to say thank you to all that attended our Nov. 16 Comfortably Speaking Toastmasters Meeting.

Just a little re-cap of what went on:

We had six guests: Omar, Shavon, Gyongyi, Hamza, Thomas, Mario

We had 12 CS Toastmaster members that attended: Jason, Kathleen, Connie, Samantha, Venkatesh, Jocelyn, Amar, Richard, Euna, Priya, Avi, and myself.

Theme of the Meeting: Remembering Fallen Heroes. We honour and remember all of our family and friends who have served selflessly to protect and fight for peace, not only here in Canada, but also abroad, in other countries.

We had three speakers:

1. Priya delivered her second speech project (Organize your Speech) and talked about what one should do to Retire Happy. Her speech was 6 minutes 32 seconds.

2. Avi delivered his second speech project (Organize your Speech) and talked about the Essentials to get Hired. His speech was 7 minutes and 5 seconds.

3. Jason delivered his fourth speech (How to Say it) and talked about one of Life's luxuries, chocolate. His speech was 6 minutes and 39 seconds.

Our three evaluators were:

1. Jocelyn evaluated Priya's speech. Jocelyn's evaluation time was 4 minutes 38 seconds. She also elaborated on benefits of being an evaluator.

2. Connie evaluated Avi's speech. Connie's evaluation time was 2 minutes 22 seconds.

3. Mario evaluated Jason's speech. Mario's evaluation time was 2 minutes and 40 seconds.

Excellent Table Topics session by Connie. We had 6 table topics participants (Richard, Gyongyi, Avi, Jinky, Thomas, Kathleen) and all finished within 2 minutes.

The awards went to:

Best Table Topics - Richard and Kathleen

Best Evaluator - Mario

Best Speaker - Avi

The meeting started a little bit late at 9:20 am, and finished on time at 11:10 am.

I hope to see you on our next CS Toastmasters meeting on Dec. 7. We will have induction of new members of our club and a potluck event to celebrate Jocelyn's and Connie's 2nd place and 3rd place win at Division C Table Topics and Humorous Contest and also as our Holiday celebration.

For those who have taken up roles last meeting and didn't get evaluated, please bring your CL manuals on December 7th and I will be happy to complete your evaluation for you.

I encourage you all to also sign up for roles and sign up to do your speeches for our upcoming meetings here. If you have any questions, please feel free to email any of our executive members.
