The theme of this meeting was “Cinco de Mayo” and the word of the day was “Sombrero”. It was also the first Tuesday of the month, so as all you know that means we had to speak in Spanish. It was my first time as toastmaster. I was really excited and nervous!!! I got a chance to read a book to everyone, it looked like they enjoyed the reading
Unfortunately we did not have any speakers, but none the less we made it a fun night!
Cesar Vargas did an excellent job as Table Topics master. He had a fill in the suspense story setting, which was really thrilling. We all had fun inventing the plot, with the guidance of Cesar of course, and adding to the suspense. Liz brought up the Swine Flu in her speech, we all enjoyed that little laugh!! Todd was very knowledgeable about the genetics/DNA great uncle he included in his story! Delfino did an excellent job acting his roles as a “maid” and a “boss” and including the “dog” into the story…the story took off from there as you can imagine! We had dead man, followed by a resurrection, and ending with it all being just an act! It was a fun night filled with laughter! Outstanding job Cesar with Table Topics!!!
This was Gabriel’s first time as General Evaluator, which I think did an excellent job in evaluating the meeting. He appeared to be very confident, even without the Corona’s!!
Ramon was very kind to bring tamales after the meeting; I couldn’t eat any of course because of my diet!!! Thanks Ramon!
We have a few speakers scheduled for next week (maybe myself)!! Hope to see everyone there this upcoming Tuesday!!!
