Toastmaster
for the evening – Pankaj Soni
Opening:
Chris Meador opened the
meeting and led the group in the Pledge of Allegiance, then turned
the gavel over to the Toastmaster of the meeting, Pankaj Soni.
Meetings that fall on
the fifth Tuesday of the month follow a non-traditional SPEECH-A-THON
format, with 5 prepared speeches and no word of the day, opening
joke, or Table Topics.
Club News:
Our next meeting on May
15 will be our normal format except we will have a special treat
before the meeting – come early to enjoy a submarine sandwich
dinner! The party sub will arrive around 6:00.
We are quickly
approaching the end of term for our current club officers. Consider
volunteering to serve as a club officer next term! The club will be
nominating candidates in May and will announce the slate of new
officers at the first meeting in June. Read more about the officer
roles in the Club Leadership Handbook at
