International Contest Recap:
Feb 1 2017 was a night of fun and passion- and our International Speech Contest! Thank you everyone for making it such a fun evening. Our wonderful competition Chair Mireille Tchatchouang ran the show without a hitch. 
Our International Speech contest was first, with Bob Stewart and Mark Pilkington going head to head. In the end, Mark won for his third year in a row. Congratulations Mark!
Next was the Evaluation Contest. Everyone began by having their seats set on fire and minds blown by a powerful speech by Kelly Parke. Thank you Kelly for bringing your A-game. It will not be forgotten.
Our Evaluation Contest Speakers faced off in a 7 way battle. The results were as follows: 3rd place – Mark Pilkington, 2nd place- Wes Vick, and 1st place – John Krissilas.
A big and special thanks to all the Judges, Speakers, and volunteers, this contest couldn’t have happened without you!
The next round, the Area Contest, is in about a month, hosted by Liberty Village Toastmasters!
Sushi always
See you next week, or at sushi!
