We are had an exciting and very colorful meeting last Wednesday. With this I would like to update you all and share our wonderful news.
We have been recognized by Toastmasters International with the Select Distinguished award for Word Weavers for 2013/14. I think this deserves a big applause to the club. Furthermore, we are really spreading the vibe and excitement going on at our meetings, which seems to be contagious and invites members from other clubs to visit and get engaged.
This brings me to say thank you to Bärbel Wallon (Famous Toastmasters of Wiesbaden) for doing an amazing job as our Toastmaster of the Evening at our last meeting. Job very well done, Bärbel, and we congratulate you on completing your Competent Leadership award and we feel honored that you were able to do this while being our TME!
Furthermore we had Michael (Rhetorik of Wiesbaden) visit us, and he has decided to become a member. So let's all welcome Michael!
We also had Larissa visiting us again. Thanks for your interest and we hope to see you again soon.
Is September we have several opportunities to make the community more aware of the fun and exciting things going on are your club. I’d like to make you aware of some of the events going on in September where we can spread the news about Word Weavers and draw attention to potential new members to our club, and I’d like to ask for your participation and engagement. There are several activities and festivals going on to welcome International and Americans to the Rhein-Main / Wiesbaden area. We have the opportunity to distribute flyers and talk to the people at several events. Here we need YOU to be onsite. Let me know if you are available and would like to spend a couple of hours for our club.
