Tonight's meeting featured 15 members, 2 speeches, and many Table Topic speakers. We also got a glimpse into what our new Toastmaster year will be looking like.
Ian Brooks served as our Toastmaster and got the ball rolling by introducing Deep Tawari as Speaker #1. Deep's speech was a follow on to his Ice Breaker from our last meeting where he shared his sense of curiosity with the club.
Kat Calhoun, Speaker #2, gave a speech about Reading to Learn. Kat spoke about the academic experiences and triumphs of children in grade school.
Sandra Centorino, our Table Topics Master, exhorted our members to give reviews of the most random things. In case you were wondering....Danette Fitzgerald gave Heaven a thumbs down, Robin Corrigan gave Tullamore Dew Whiskey 5 cups, Ann McGuire gave the porta potty a -10. Ross, Alexis, and Jaime shared their insights on the steam room, Whole Foods, and Zumba respectively.
Special thanks to the dignitaries not mentioned above that ensured a fulfilling meeting....Yours Truly as General Evaluator and Grammarian, Diana Grippen and Christine Austin as Evaluators. Tom Corrigan as Ah Counter...and Robin Corrigan as Timer.
President Christine announced our new slate of officers for next year, once again highlighting Eagle's deep bench of dedicated and capable members. Drum roll please.....
President - Christine Austin
VP Education - Ute Brinkmann
VP Membership - Chan Kyi
VP Public Relations - Ann McGuire
Sergeant at Arms - Deep Tawari

Congratulations to all of our new officers....Deep and Chan are "officer newbies" with Christine and Ann heading into their first full year in the officer ranks. We are blessed to have Ute and Ian, a couple of very experienced officers, as part of the team!
Our next meeting will take place on June 15th as a virtual meeting. An agenda for us to sign up will be put up shortly.
Finally....for those of you who interested in participating in an early morning bilingual experience, where you'll find Ahs and Ums to be the universal language of filler words, please consider attending the Bi Lingual Toastmasters meeting. Please reach out to Kat Calhoun (Kat_Calhoun@yahoo.com) for the details!
