The meeting on Friday was busy and eventful. First of all, Kristin gave her 10th and final project, titled “Moving Forward”. Her skills have improved so much and we were all inspired afterwards. Now she’s completed the Competent Communication manual. Hooray, Kristin!
Our new members received a warm welcome next. Cheryl, Karen, and Vidya each received a welcome card and a Toastmasters notebook in which they would jot down speech ideas. After our new Hospitality Chair, Barbara, officially welcomed them to our growing club, they read a Toastmaster’s promise. The promise is a pledge of personal growth and commitment to the club.
We appreciated mentors and gave them pins so that members can identify them and seek advice. Kristin also received a special appreciation award for all her hard work as the VP Education. Our club would not be the same without her dedication and leadership.
Our Area Director, Daniël, installed new club officers. Thank you, Kristin, Katherine, Karen, Simon, Lianhai, Cheryl, and Gus, for stepping up to lead and serve our club in the upcoming term! Looking forward to the next meeting in July.
