Tonight's meeting featured 12 members, 1 guest, and 5 cats!
Ann McGuire, tonight's Toastmaster, solemnly announced that her cat was a no-show.
Speaker #1, Sandra Centorino, spoke out of the Pathways Visionary Communicator Path about a small project that she is leading. She explained the scope of her project, which is to educate and motivate our fellow Eagles to consider taking on leadership roles. Please join us on May 18th to learn about the seven officer roles. Sandra will also show a short video clip of a panel discussion of 4 officers.
Joseph Oddie, Speaker #2, gave an impromptu speech called "When Opportunity Knocks, Cross the Picket Line". Joseph shared a story about how he outsold his competitor (at a price premium, no less) by processing blood during a labor strike.
While the evaluators were feverishly completing their evaluation forms, Ian Brooks, led a COVID 19 inspired Table Topics. We learned that Maryanne Shirshac likes white wine, and about how Diana and Ross Grippen try to "do more doing and less time being". Kate Kelly shared the perspective of her Australian coworkers during these challenging times.
Special thanks to all of the dignitaries that made tonight's meeting a success....Not least of which is Ann McGuire, a first time Toastmaster! Other functionaries include Tony Centorino (General Evaluator, Evaluator, and Ah Counter), Omar Ghannam (Evaluator), Kate Kelly (Timer) and Ian Brooks (Grammarian).
