Our May 26th meeting will go down in Postprandial history as one of our greatest.
Why, you may ask?
Was it that every facet of the meeting ran smoothly? That the Table Topics participants, Speakers, and Evaluators were unusually good that night? Perhaps it was the “back to the future” theme of “Graduation” that caused this meeting to stand out.
While all of the above points are true — it was indeed an unusually good meeting — the May 26th meeting will go down in Postprandial history because we officially inducted five — count ‘em — FIVE new members into the club. Not one, not two, not three or four, but FIVE.
Wow.
To add the icing here, all five of our new members are already Toastmasters and have belonged or still belong to another club. In some cases, the new member chose Postprandial after a rigorous vetting process during which he or she attended meetings at several clubs in the area, only to land at Postprandial.
We are honored, and humbled.
So three cheers and hats off to Melissa LaMark, Jean Publow, Matt Buffan, Paul German, and Mick Schoenberger!!!
Welcome aboard! We’re thrilled to have you in the club and know that you will each make great contributions to Postprandial.
