Latin Leaders - Toastmasters Club #583774

This meeting we had two advanced speeches going on.  The first was Todd doing project #4 from the Specialty speeches manual titled “Reasons to be Up in Down Times”.  His speech was 9 to 11 minutes.  This was an interesting speech, using the projector showing various graphs of gas prices, market prices, etc. over time.  My speech was speech #4 of the Persuasive Speaking manual entitled “Writing at Toastmasters”.  My speech was 7 to 9 minutes long.  I talked about the benefits of incorporating writing skills into the Toastmasters program and too questions from the audience for three minutes.

The area speech contest is coming up so we need to start planning our club contest.  The area contest will be on September 20 so we will need to have our club contest on either Sep 2, 9, or 16.  Any volunteers for contestants?
