What did YOU do this summer?

And so it was with this week's theme, as Immediate Past Area Governor Arnie Buss gave us a lesson in "how to do it" by leading us through another excellent meeting as TMOD. With 19 members and four guests present, our newest member Donna Cunningham was voted into membership and duly inducted. Donna is our 7th new member since July 1st!

One of the guests was former member Elizabeth Guzman, who we sincerely hope will be re-joining the club soon.

In addition to Shenequa Mitchell's excellent #4 speech below, Cathy Lee practiced her lawyer skills by delivering prosecution closing arguments for a criminal trial as her #5 speech. Cathy won Best Speaker, while her evaluator Scott Wilbur was awarded Best Evaluator.

Best Table Topics went to Alec Metz, fresh back from Mongolia, who described his recent marriage and associated travels. Most Improved was Donna Cunningham, who talked about her long-distance marriage. Congratulations to all!
