Secretary’s Report for August 20th, 2009
We had a great meeting Thursday August 20th, 2009.
Eleven of our members were present and a guest, Kelvyn Harris, from the River City Toastmasters Club, in Danville. Instead of Topics we had “one minute radio spots” (for WYTI Radio), from Leigh, David, Joyce, Brian, & Wade. They all did great on sharing different aspects of Toastmasters to help Franklin County be more aware of what Toastmasters is all about, its benefits and when and where we meet.
“Balance and Harmony” was the title of Alexandria’s speech. She shared with us about Tai Chi, which originated in China. It works with the mind, spirit and body. It took away her husband’s “night terrors”, and her back pain, without using drugs . It has also helped Alzheimers patients, arthritic patients and alleviates stress, etc. Alexandria’s company The Merchant Institute for Health and Wellness if offering free sample classes for Tai Chi. If you are interested let her know and she’ll give you a handout giving dates and times of these free classes. Very interesting speech Alexandria.
“False Advertising” was the title of Wade’s speech. We are all victims to false advertising. Wade gave us a little bit of history about the Federal Trade Commission which was established in 1914 to monitor and punish companies and individuals for false advertising. I bet we will all read the “maple syrup” label the next time we have to purchase some. And what about those Pennsylvania Dutch mushrooms coming all the way from China. BE AWARE OF SCAM ADVERTISING!! Wade took home the ribbon for best speech.
Evaluations were done well by Brian and Joyce. Brian took home the ribbon.
Stephanie was General Evaluator for the first time and she did a good job. All other jobs were done well.
REMEMBER:
Our club’s speech and evaluation contest is Sept. 10. We have 2 speakers and 2 evaluators to date (any one else interested?). We will also need timers, judges, a chief judge and a contest master. This is an important function of our club. I hope you will say YES if asked to volunteer for one of the positions mentioned above.
