August 9th review

Hello all,

Lee was the Toastmaster of the day, whose theme was the Olympics. We had a bit of a schedule change as one of the speakers did not show, but instead had longer Table Topics. Laimons was the speaker of the day, talking about volunteering at a kindergarten class. He both warned us about, and encouraged us to become a volunteer for Lincoln County School District. He was evaluated by Lori, who complimented him on his commanding voice and presence.
Table Topics was a bit different today, as Kathleen wrote the last line of a book on a notecard, and passed everyone a card. We were then supposed to begin a story with that line as our inspiration. During Table Topics, we had stories ranging from a major Earthquake occurring, to a soul speaking to their loved ones saying they are at peace. Marisa was the one who took home the trophy for Table Topics, as she told us a story of going through a storm on a fishing boat.
The word of the day was exuberant, based on how happy the athletes are after they compete in the Olympics. The general evaluator was Peter, who talked about how there were smooth transitions, but we need to be aware that we should not abandon the lectern when switching from a role back to the Toastmaster.
 We would like to welcome back Marisa from her absence. We are happy to have her back with us.

Have a good week.
