Tuesday June 10th meeting recap.
Our Toastmaster Chris C. began our meeting with a three point introduction, which gave us all a challenge to start.
Marvin gave us a great educational session about how to improve the opening for speeches. We all had a chance to explain how we have successful incorporated some of Marvin's ideas during our Toastmasters careers.
Michel led us in Table Topics with his "Book of If". All 6 members in attendance took a turn at speaking, with Nandini taking home the Table Topics Trophy.
The best part of our meeting tonight is that we managed to have a fun full meeting with only 6 members!
