What a night for Speakers Round Table!   3 great speeches and a new member.
The meeting started promptly at 6:01pm as our Sgt. Of Arms Keith Schroder banged the gavel and started us in the pledge.

Bill Kovach gave us some presidential remarks and got us going by bringing up the Toastmaster of the day Paul Johnson.

Paul kept thing lively and moving as we enjoyed 3 speeches tonight.

Ericka Butler gave us an ice breaker speech taking us back to her roots in Detroit, Michigan.  She even left us with tips on how  to be Fascinating and Fabulous ™.

Next up Rui Li (or Li Rui if you’re in China) helped us decipher the meaning of Chinese names.  More than meets the eye but not so much as to be incomprehensible.

Cara then rounded out the speaking portion with a presentation on the new Far Infrared Sauna.  Harder to say than a Chinese name but Cara gave us a thorough presentation of its benefits.

Donna Satchell evaluated our meeting in detail. Keith ran camera, Richard Kirby timed, and Shea Ellison noted the intrinsic lack of ums and ahs in our Advanced group.

Kudos to Claudia Brogan for the snacks, Paul for bringing the water, and Richard for bringing the salt n pepper chips.

We voted in Ericka Butler in as a member and we now have 28 members!  Go SRT!

See you in 2 weeks.
