3rd September - Humorous Speech and Table Topics Contest

Tonight we held our Humorous Speech and Table Topics Contests.

Special thanks for our contest chair, Anne Stimpson; and our Contest Toastmaster, Pieta Beggs.  And also to all our guest judges, timers and counters.  Without you we wouldn't have been able to hold the contest, thank you!

Tonight we had 3 entrants in our Humorous Speech contest.
Chantel gave us a very funny speech called "The treacherous tails of my hair".
Glennis channeled Russel Coight with her speech "The outback adventures of the Baumanns".
And Jeremy concluded with his speech "They are real, zombies are real!".

Congratulations to our winners in the Humorous Speech contest:
1st Place: Jeremy Brew
2nd Place: Chantel Queenan
3rd Place: Glennis Baumann

Our Table Topics theme was: "Is the reward worth the risk?".  Jeremy spoke about the risk of leaving his kids to grow up while he goes to work each day.  Tim gave us a very funny speech about the world of competitive dodgeball (Tim, you should have entered the Humorous Speech contest!).  Chantel talked about pushing yourself and giving it all you've got, with a her example of aerial circus.  And Glennis talked about making an effort, having a go and the motto of "Just Do It".

Congratulations to our winners in the Table Topics contest:
1st Place: Chantel Queenan
2nd Place: Glennis Baumann
3rd Place: Jeremy Brew

We wish Chantel and Jeremy all the best at the Area 24 contest which will be on the 28th October.
