Flash from Salinas: Angi Wins Table Topics!

I'm just back from the Division A contest in Salinas, and it was a wonderful one! Being at the Agricultural Conference Center brought back memories of last fall's Areas humorous and evaluation contest.

The highlight of course was Angi Anderson winning the Table Topics contest - so she will represent Division a at the District Contest on May 18. The question was one of the toughest I have heard at a contest - "How do you justify your existence?" All four contestants gave outstanding responses, and Angi's was more outstanding than the others - Congratulations Angi!!

Here is Angi receiving her award from District 4 Representative, our own Carl Thormeyer:

The other highlight was our District Governor Ken Cawley giving out special awards to clubs who have met various goals in the DCP. Our president, Glenn Tolle (who also served as the chief judge for the International Speech Contest) got his exercise in from all the times he was called for yet another award to NPS.

It was a terrific event - what better way to spend a rainy day than at a Toastmasters contest - especially if our contestant won!
