Evaluation Technique Educational
Members and guests are invited to attend a noon hour workshop on how to present an evaluation that is inspiring and helps a speaker to gain confidence and grow in skills. The same techniques can be used successfully in your career or in family relationships. The evaluation educational session will take place on March 6 during the CTI Techtalkers Toastmaster meeting in Boardroom 7 (upstairs near the elevator) from 12 noon to 1 pm. All are welcome!
Evaluation Contest coming!
On March 13 CTI will be holding its annual Club Evaluation contest. Find out what makes a really good evaluation by listening to 6 members of our club! Compare the comments of contestants who will evaluate the same speech. Cheer for your preferred winners.
The process: A test speaker, from another club and unfamiliar to the evaluation contestants, will present a 5-7 minute speech. The contestants will listen to the speech, make their notes and then go to a separate room where they will have 5 minutes to organize and refine their evaluation. Afterewards, each of the contestants, in a previously drawn speaking order, will have 2-3 minutes to present their comments and suggestions to the test speaker and the audience. Judges use Toastmasters International judging criteria to award first, second and third place.
The contest will take place from 12 noon to 1 pm in Boardroom 2/3. Contestants and officials should arrive at 11:50 am for their briefings and registration.

Inspiring meeting
Today's CTI Techtalkers meeting was both inspiring and emotional.
Ray delivered a powerful 10th speech on "Attitude" to earn his Competent Communicator. As Ray said, it was a long time coming, but he persevered and it was worth the wait. Congratulations on your achievement, Ray.
Carole delivered an inspiring speech on her secret about the Secret. Carole is leaving soon for Costa Rica where she and her husband plan to live. We enjoyed a tasty Gran Marnier cake and the opportunity to say farewell until we meet again to one of our outstanding Charter Members. All the best to you Carole in your new life! Don't forget to send us your new address.
