Jean Schmidt was our Toastmaster and talked about the benefits of entering the International Speech Contest. Bang Parkinson brought our word for the day: "Colloquial" meaning the informal use of a word.We had two manual speeches. Theresa Frasch spoke from an advanced manual giving us all a lesson on making a cold sales call. Keith Weir explained the benefits of the apprenticeship available to graduating high school seniors. Our topic master Roger Wells had us handling different diversity situations.
