Latin Leaders - Toastmasters Club #583774

It was a very fun meeting last night.  The theme was “laughter” and we certainly had a lot of that.  Even though the meeting was fun and laid back, we still started and ended on time.  We had two speakers, myself and Alberto.  I gave a Successful Club Series speech on Mentoring, and Alberto talked about keeping your relationship happy.  He certainly did some research on the differences between men and women and did a great job meeting the objectives of his speech.  Todd Swain took over Table Topics due to a last minute cancelation.  His topics were very insightful and interesting.  Everyone had a chance to speak today.  Delfino has recently become a new father and talked about that briefly.  Now we know why he hasn’t been around recently.  He is now back on track on scheduled to complete a few speeches in the next two months.  Make sure you come to the meetings so you don’t miss these great speeches.

Dan,

The website is looking better and better.  If you’d like, I can help you test the new features that you add on it.  I think the formatting needs to be improved.  Otherwise, it’s coming along niceley.  Let me know if you need anything else from me.

Thanks for giving me a chance to win the Evaluator Award.

Regards,

Sal Zamarripa

Twelve months ago we set our goal for the year to become President’s Distinguished and we put that plan in place and followed it month after month.  Well, that planning has paid off as we are now officially a President’s Distinguished club.  This is a first for our club and it is certainly something to be celebrated, but we cannot let ourselves become complacent.  The new year has started and again we must be diligent in planning for the coming year setting our sights again at President’s Distinguished status.  We have set a new bar for our club and we hope to continue in moving that bar higher and higher with each new year.

Membership again should be our immediate focus and we must strive to fill our speaking slots and achieve educational awards for everyone reaching for that goal this year.  It should be a walk in the park, now that we know it can be done.  Congratulations to everyone who worked hard to make this happen.
