2. New members on the Executive Committee:
The second half of the Toastmasters year brought us some new faces to the Executive Committee;

Co-VP of Education:  Yuri
VP of Membership:    Ted
Secretary:                    Karoline
Sergeant of Arms:      Felix

Please join me to congratulate and support our new executives and wish them all the best on their roles. We thank you all for volunteering your time.

3. Where is Rene?
On our first meeting of 2014 I promised all of you that I will dedicate this year to pursue a master’s degree. That’s exactly what I have been doing. As a consequence of the above, I have been forced to leave our meetings a bit early each Wednesday.

The good news is the only mandatory course that I need to take on Wednesdays is almost over and I will enjoy the privilege of your company very soon.  I always learn a lot from your speeches and evaluations.

4. Tonight’s meeting:
We are headed for an amazing meeting tonight, including a CC5, a CC6 and a very advanced presentation from one of our DTM’s. the General Evaluator will be no other than our Area Governor. I Look forward to see all of you at 6pm at our regular location.

Yours in Toastmasters,

Rene.
