Toastmasters
9/24/20 Recap
Sergeant at Arms, Bud Otto, opened the meeting with the pledge of
allegiance, and then turned the meeting over to our president, Una
Richards.
Una updated us on upcoming Toastmasters events (see list
below) and then introduced our Toastmaster of the day, Jim Owen.
Nine members were present, and one visitor, Foluso Akerele.
Anastasia gave us the word of the day - Festinate –
which means to hurry or make faster.
Jim then introduced our first speaker Sam Gadebusch.
Sam gave his 5 to 7-minute speech on Core Values, explaining the
values he learned at his school, Penn State.

Develop a great work ethic

Compete in everything you do

Andy Kallenberg then presented his speech, a 20-25-minute speech
at Level 4 in Pathways.
His speech and Power Point presentation focused on racial
injustice, and included time for discussion with other members.
This presentation will be given to a work group, and Andy he
presented to Toastmasters to solicit feedback from the members
before making his presentation.
