Two Ice Breaker speeches
We celebrated two new members delivering their first speech in Toastmasters, the Ice Breaker speech. The purposes of this speech are 1) to introduce themselves to the club, 2) to learn the basic structure of speeches, and 3) to find where you are as a public speaker. You deliver a speech, receive feedback from your fellow member,s and start your journey as a Toastmaster and speaker.

Year-end Recognition
It has been a TGIF tradition to recognize some members who contributed to the club in many different ways, including the Most Attendance award. Do you think it's too good to be recognized for simply attending many meetings? Well, these members haven't simply attended many meetings. They helped move the club forward by taking roles, helping set up the meeting room, and providing feedback. In Toastmasters, where members learn by receiving and implementing peer feedback, regular attendance means a lot as it is included as the first item of "A Toastmaster's Promise," which every single member makes when they first join a club.

Installation Ceremony
As this was the last meeting of the 2022-2023 program year, we held the Installation Ceremony at the end of the meeting. This discharges the club officers for 2022-2023 and installs the officers for 2023-2024. Though two incoming officers were absent, the other five incoming officers made their promise to "perform their duties to the best of their ability."
We will work together under their leadership to perfect our meetings to bring about the best outcome possible to foster mutual support and the best educational outcome possible.
