Meeting #555 - June 13, 2006

We had a great and quite popular meeting on June 13, 2006. Our theme was Numerology and we were visited by three guests. We were ably led by Toastmaster Rebecca. Toastmaster Sharon brought us a Word of the Day: numismatics, which is the science of coins and metals. Toastmaster Carrie brought us a Quote of the Day. Toastmaster Robert then provided an Invocation of the Day.

It was then time to move to our speech for the day. First, we heard from Toastmaster Kathryn with the objectives for a Competent Leader (CL) speech. Then, we got to think about our club climate with the speech on Moments of Truth from Toastmaster Gisèle.

We then had some time for Table Topics, brought to us by Toastmaster Louise, who provided some challenging ideas to think about for Toastmaster Marcos, Toastmaster Angie, and Toastmaster Kathryn.

We then had some club business from Toastmaster Kathryn. The club is trying to decide whether to take a complete break from meetings from July 11 to August 22, or to have a decreased schedule of meetings only every two weeks. The club executive committee would like to hear from the club members.

We then heard from Toastmaster Carrie, who brought us some Quizmaster questions to see how well we had all listened to the meeting.

We then moved in to the evaluation portion of the meeting with a General Evaluation of the meeting, from Toastmaster Guy, assisted by Toastmaster John v. as Timer and Toastmaster Bill as Grammarian/Ah Counter.

Toastmaster Rebecca returned to review the agenda for next week. We then adjourned.

Looking forward to seeing you on June 20!
