Hi, Toastmasters:

As many of you know, I love to read.  I will read just about anything in front of me.
I was looking through past issues of Toastmaster magazine and found this interesting survery in the February 2014 edition.

Take a  look and see what we are made of. It is interesting.

Today in Toastmaster

Hi, Mudslingers:

I hope you all had a great weekend! Many of you may have already received your April TOASTMASTER magazine in the mail.

If you have, please take a chance to read it! It has plenty of good reading in it that is helpful.

Highlights:

1.      Presenting in a Second Language page 16
2.       How to Introduce  A Speaker page 8
3.       Flubs, Flops, and Solutions page 26

This issue does a nice job in showcasing Malaysia, the site of this year’s Toastmasters International Convention.

When you are done reading the magazine, leave it around the break areas for an employee to read. They may find it helpful and join our club!

PLEASE SIGN UP FOR A ROLE TODAY.

Thanks, my friends!

Big Kuddos to Vidya Raja!

Dear Mudslingers:

As promised, here is the video of Vidya Raja's contest speech. I apologize for having some of the intro cut short, but I was nervous for her and couldn't remember how to use an iPhone!
I also apologize for my hyena-like laughter in the background.

I am very happy to see how Vidya has grown in our club and after today's uplifting meeting, I am still very proud to be a Mudslinger.Our club is a very worthwhile cause and I hope we keep growing.
We have lost a lot of valuable members to relocation and new transitions in their careers, but hopefully they will keep our spirit with them as they move onward and upward.

Please view Vidya's speech and encourage her with your comments and feedback to show how much you appreciate her taking on the challenge to represent us at competition. That was a very good day.




Don't forget to sign up for a role!

Thanks,
Carolina
