It was a night of firsts: Our first meeting of the new Toastmasters year, our first reports from the new Executive Committee, our first new member of the year (Congratulations to Erin McCormick!), and our first taste of Sanibel Cottage as a temporary replacement venue.
A special shout-out to Matt McDermott, who delivered one of the best icebreaker speeches we’ve seen and took home the prize for best speaker. Way to go, Matt!
