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...
