The Big Dance
This may seem to be two people ready to call it a night, but that is far from the case! The Saturday night International Speech Contest was energy and action packed! Ten of some of the top Toastmasters speakers in most of Minnesota and Ontario battled for the top 3 spots, in hopes of bringing trophies home to their clubs.
Many comments were made by spectators that they were glad not to be a judge in this competition. Raymond Norton, from our very own Hutchinson Toastmasters II club had a great outing and gladly received his certificate of participation from our new District 6 Governor Elect, Dru Jorgensen.
Congratulations to Kenny Ray Morgan-1st Place Winner, from the Western Division. Kenny Ray will be competing next in Orlando Florida, August 16th-18th http://www.toastmasters.org/Members/MemberExperience/Contests/SpeechContests.aspx


Join us Saturday, April 14th for some good fun at the Prairie Division Speech Contest in St. Cloud. This is a great opportunity for fun and learning as members from our local club-Kay DeSmith and Raymond Norton compete at the Division level.
Everybody wants to be green, but as Kermit the Frog, would say, “It’s not easy being green.” With much profit potential waiting for the companies that corner the “green market”, the hype in many cases, looms larger than the truth. Come prepared to discuss green science: Is it back to the family garden plot or is it an electric car or is it a scene out of “Soylent Green?” Announcer doing a commercial announcement before Gov. Santini’s interview: “ …is brought to you by Soylent red and Soylent yellow, high energy vegetable concentrates, and new, delicious, Soylent green. The miracle food of high-energy plankton gathered from the oceans of the world.”
