Jeff Stafford took 2nd place in our club table topics contest. He will represent Rio Copa if Steven is unable to attend the R4 Area Contest,
Tim Farley took 3rd place and joined our club just a few weeks ago! It was a very close race for 3rd; Mike Myer also competed.
Table Topics is a traditional part of Toastmasters and enables members
to practice impromptu (off the cuff) speaking. For the contest each
contestant is asked the same question and judges determine the winner
based on specific criteria such as speech development, effectiveness, vocal variety, and language used.
Congratulations to all four contestants that competed!!!
