With Jeff Harman as Toastmaster and Naomi Conners as Chief Judge, Renaissance Speakers held the annual "Table Topics" and "Tall Tales" speech contests.
There were five contestants in each contest. For the Table Topics contest, entries were: Annette McCullough, Mick Coventry, Clare Anahu, Yana Yatkovskaya and Ingrid Smith. The impromptu answers to the contest question were very interesting to the club members in the audience, who were judges.
For the Tall Tales contest, entries were: Annette McCullough, Mick Coventry, Clare Anahu, Cliff Noble and Val Rodionov. We all cheered Mick Coventry sweeping the top awards with his Topic answer and with his winning speech: "Winkle: Snail of Destiny".
A fun contest, thanks and kudos to all who participated! The Renaissance continues...

2008-03-30: Area Speech Contest Winners
|
I'm proud to announce that both Bruce Delfeld and Bill Moon were winners in the Area 32 International Speech and Evaluation Contest held this week.
Bill Moon took 2nd Place in the Speech Evaluation Contest and Bruce Delfeld also came home with 2nd Place in the International Speech Contest. Here they are holding their trophys.
Questions arose as to the karma of Bruce entitling his speech: "Second Best" considering the final rankings. But those of us "in the know" know that Bruce lives in The Twilight Zone anyway.
