Fellow Juxtaposed Toasties! When gathered side-by-side, one can never tell
what mastery will emerge.
Confused?
Well, you should have been there.
Our first speaker Elliot really got us thinking about Nature vs. Nurture. He
enlightened us with the unusual way that he found his voice and encouraged us
all to find our voice. His evaluator, Boyce pointed out the many confident
aspects to Elliot’s speech and if you missed it, you missed the awarded best
speaker of the night. You should have been there.
Our second speech was delivered by (myself) Brissa. It was a motivational
piece to keep brand new medical students to finish college and “get through
the struggle”. Amanda delivered a sincere and observant evaluation pointing
out an authoritative yet relatable presence.
Also, last night all members were challenged to truly think about the best
answer for a given situation in our Table Topics portion of the evening. From
grasshopper paste to setting up shelter, Dirk required us all to use the
Word-of-the-Day. Kuddos to Jennifer (not Amy) for using the Word-of-the-Day
not once, but three times. It was a skillful spectacle, you should have been
there. Well done Jennifer! Congratulations to our Table Topics winner Ray for
an entertaining bit on riptides with common sense.
Recently, Carbon Valley Toastmasters has raised not one, but two members in
receiving the Competent Communicator Award. Congratulations Amanda and
Brissa. Randy your next! He is one speech away from accomplishing the
Competent Communicator Award as well.
Mark your calendars for April 13th 9:00-11:00 AM because Carbon Valley
Toastmaster Dirk will be competing in the Evaluation contest @ Lutheran
Church of the Master 14099 West Jewell Ave. Lakewood, CO 80228.
Hey, did you ever hear that one joke about what the drunk said to the cop?
You know, about a lecture the drunk was headed to?
Oh yeah, you weren’t there. It was so funny, you should have been there.
Until next time – Brissa Childers, your newsletter editor, April 10, 2019.
