Congratulations, Neil, on doing your Ice Breaker speech so soon after joining last week!
This meeting being our last had a touch of the sentimental and the celebratory. We had tea and coffee and SWEETS! Chocolates, muffins, and candy helped us celebrate the end of another year of Toastmasters. The sentiment and warm feelings came from Ann mostly, who will be leaving her post as President of EarlyRisers. We will miss her. Ann used her speech time to give thanks to all the members and to recognize each member with a crisp certificate of accomplishment and a binder to hold all those manuals. Thank you for all your great service, friendship and support, Ann.
