Area F2 contest is Sat, March 23, 1pm – 5pm at the Lutheran Medical
Center, 8300 W 38th Ave, Wheat Ridge, CO 80033
Either Feb 28 or Mar 7 would work well in that time frame, and give the
winners a chance to practice before the F2 contest. I'd lean toward the
28th, just because of vacations that have already been entered in Easy
Speak.

Happy Friday fellow Toastmasters,
International speech and Evaluation Contest is coming. This is a big
deal! The winners of this contest will not only represent FRTM at the area
level, but quite frankly, will represent the Division (for Evaluation) and
the District for the International competition. I am of course alluding to
the talent we have and extrapolating facts to ascertain that our winners
will move on and win at all subsequent levels. That was a mouthful. We
need to agree on a date for our contest. I don’t know that I should be the
dictator for that process. I am thinking either February 28 or March 7th
as club contest dates. If anyone can provide the Area contest date, that
may help us decide.
The really good news is I already have a timer, a chief judge, and a
Toastmaster for the evening. Please let me know if you will be a
functionary (worker bee) or a contestant (superstar). We need both to be
successful. I will be sending out reminders and bugging you at meetings,
so you might as well volunteer early to ease the guilt I will be laying on
you.
In my defense, I volunteered to be the contest chair under the euphoria of
the meeting last night. We had 10 members and 11 guests. I did the math
and it appears we had more guests than members. It was a fun and
entertaining night. I don’t want to steal Jonathan’s thunder so I won’t
elaborate any longer on the fantastic meeting last night. Did I mention
how much fun we had? See you next week and don’t be afraid to respond back
directly to me with your preferences on the club contest.
Respectfully your club contest chair,
Robin McIntosh Jr.
