Club Speech Contest

We had a fun-tastic Contest Meeting last night with 18 members and 2 guests. Thanks to Cheryl Mason for an outstanding job and all the prep work she did ahead of time. Our guests included Victoria Schaff and first time visitor, Craig Fisher.

Kim Price was the Contest Master and he did an excellent job keeping the meeting in order and flowing. Jeff Lagasse was Sargeant at Arms. He was in and out of the room as he kept participants occupied during speeches. As Chief Judge, Tom Alvord did a terrific job keeping track of the judges, timers, and ballot counters.

Now for the exciting part of the evening – our 2 contests! Anne-Marie Cannata had an awesome evening, taking home first place for both the Table Topics and International Speeches! Double congratulations to Anne-Marie! Other winners for the Table Topics Contest went to Arun Sodani for second place and Rob Schaff, third place. Rob Schaff also took home second place for the International Contest! The speeches were all entertaining and very much enjoyed by the audience!

A huge thank you to everyone for making the Contest Meeting successful and fun!
