The meeting went smoothly and Bill Forristall made a last minute substitution as the first speaker. He gave a speech titled "When Are You", which was later evaluated by Jon Fleming.

It was announced that we have a new member, Caroline Edwards.
The meeting went very smoothly. We were treated to two very good speeches by Charlie Peters and Jon Fleming. Charlie Peters gave his speech entitled, "The Tragic Effects of the Draft", which was speech #7 from the Communication and Leadership Manual. Jon Fleming gave his speech entitled, "Stepping out of Your Comfort Zone", which was his second speech from the Communication and Leadership Manual.
After the speeches our Table Topics Master, Renee Zimmerman, gave us fun topics and utilized a bag of books for her questions. We had 99% participation! At the end of the meeting, after the evaluations and reports had been given, Nathan Brown gave us a quiz to test how well we'd been listening to the presenters and the Toastmaster.
It was announced that the District Two Conference would be held on May 14. Cost is $65 if paid ahead of time, $95 at the door.
