A typical meeting at Yaquina Toastmasters

Start- 7:00 AM
Our president will begin the meeting, and ask if there were any outside speeches. From there we go over any business we need to take care of, and the president will turn the lecture over to the Toastmaster of the day.

The Toastmaster will introduce the rolls of the day: grammarian, table topics master, timer, general evaluator, and speech evaluator. They will then announce the day's speaker, with a short introduction.

The speaker will give their speech at the lectern, who will be evaluated by a speech evaluator to find out what was good, and what needs improvement in their speech.

Toastmaster of the day will come back up to the front and remind everyone to fill out our evaluation sheets and then pass them to the speaker. If there is a second speaker, the Toastmaster will say a few fun facts, and then introduce them. If there is not, they will introduce the table topics master.

Table topics is when the topics master will ask random members a to speak on a topic such as "Please make a commercial about shoes" or "Tell us story about when you have been on vacation, and a problem arose".

To end the meeting, each roll will review what they were looking for that day. Grammarian will report on umms and interesting words. Table topics will present the award to the best impromptu one minute speech. Timer will state how long everyone spoke for, especially the speech and speech evaluators. Lastly, the general evaluator will say how everyone who wasn't evaluated did, such as how timely the Toastmaster was, and how transitions between rolls were.

The president will then take over to give the schedule for next week, and conclude the meeting.
End- 7:50 AM
