During out Table Topics we found out that a few of our members were spending their entire day working on Toastmasters business. Now that's dedication! I'm sure whatever they worked on will benefit many clubs and their members.
We also had two speeches. The first speaker, Ken, is on his one-speech-a-week streak and gave his fourth speech titled "Kanban Meets The Family." Kanban is a methodology by which tasks are listed on a signboard, and we learned how the concept was developed by Toyota. Ken told us how the concept of Kanban could be utilized at home to keep all household chores prioritized and completed.
Our second speaker, Jeff, completed another project from the Interpretive Reading manual: The Monologue. I have to say that Jeff's speech (or one-man act) was funny, entertaining, and one of my favorite of Jeff's speeches. He had the audience laughing and I think that there is a future for Jeff in theatre! Great flair Jeff!
Last but not least DeAnna and Sandra announced that Top of Texas Toastmasters has earned the distinction of being a President's Distinguished Club for 2013 - 2014! Our club earned *all ten* goals for the Toastmaster year! Our club is awesome and no doubt will have another great year coming soon.
