Give Me Liberty

October 28th 1886 was the dedication of the Statue of Liberty so our Toastmaster, Mike DeLeon, used that his theme of the meeting, giving us some history and statistical data on the monument.

Carrying along with the theme Jean Schmidt brought us the word "Freedom".

Kieth Weir gave a speech where he talked about the different stages of Halloween. He spoke how as we age we change our view of the holiday. Roger Wells in a speech titled "Why Do They Do It?", he wondered people feel they have to exagerate their public resumes.

Since Keith was also Table Topics Master, members had a chance to express opinions of Halloween duringTable Topics.

Our next meeting is November 11th which is Veteran's Day so ERAC will be closed. We will be meeting at Infusion Tea & Coffee (15607 1st Ave So). See the Schedules and Roles page for who's doing what.
