SDTM November 21st Meeting

We had another fabulous meeting at Cross Court Tennis Club, our new smoke-free meeting place. What did you miss? Well, Janice led the meeting with a Thanksgiving theme. Rob was our speaker, doing the “Sell a Product” project from the specialty speeches manual. He successfully sold ‘The Rack’ to the entire room. The demonstration was amazing!! Trishla led a holiday based Table Topics session on holiday ‘drama’. We heard all kinds of stories including turkey fires and hospital trips. Finally, Bill gave an excellent evaluation of Rob’s speech.
Our next meeting is December 5th, 7pm at Cross Court Tennis Club. Hope to see you there!

First meeting at Cross Court a Success!!

On Nov. 7th, we had our first meeting at our new smoke-free location, Cross Court Tennis Club. We had some positive feedback on the room, particularly the brightness. If you attended the meeting and have feedback, we would love to hear it.

We had 3 fantastic speakers, including our guest speaker, Dave Wheeler. You could say all of our speakers gave inspirational speeches. Trishla inspired us to start our own kitchen gardens by explaining the benefits of a kitchen garden and of eating seasonal, local food. Bill inspired us to be more charitable over the holidays by sharing some personal, uplifting stories of his own. Dave inspired us to strive for our goals by making simple changes in our lifestyles. It was a great meeting. Thanks to all attended!!

Our next meeting will be this coming Monday, Nov. 21st, at 7pm at Cross Court Tennis Club. Join us for more excitement and fun!!!
