Let's Go On Vacation!

We got off to a great start of the new Toastmaster year with an installation performed by our Area Governor Steve Kennedy.

Getting right into Toastmasters, our newest member Keith took over the duties of Toastmaster. His theme was rejuvenation of spirit. July being the kick off of the vacation season Mike, our topic master, wanted the group to share some vacation ideas. Our word of the day was "consanguineous" an adjective meaning having a common ancestry.

In a speech using facial expressions and body language Roger talked about growing old. Theresa led a mini discussion about changing the meeting agenda. It was decided to have our business portion at the end of the meeting. Dennis Bauer a guest speaker, who will be giving a seminar on storytelling, spoke on enhancing your speeches with stories.
