SUMMER WINTER CARNIVAL

On this snowy day we are happy to announce that the summer will start in a few days! Why? It has nothing to do with global warming, because our Summer Winter Carnival is coming soon.

Here is a quick update about our activities at the party:

· Team-building workshop “The best summer story”

· Latino dances master-class with excellent teachers and a special guest from Cuba

· We’ll have a photo session in a special “summer island”

· A slide-show with the best summer pictures of you and your Toastmasters friends

· Don’t forget to dress in the bright summer clothes as the Best Summer Costume will receive a present!

If you have already made up your mind to attend the party, contact your club’s VP Education or VP PR, they would gladly supply you with the tickets at a price of just 50 UAH; this is a discounted price, don't hasitate :).

Hope to see you on Saturday, January 22 at HudGraf Gallery Cafe!
We’ll melt the snow with the heat of this party!

Wishing you a purr-fect year 2011!!! ;)

The results of EBA Inner Speech Contest

It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.Buddha

Last Thursday we all had a great pleasure to be part of a big event in the life of our club. We had a marvellous Inner Speech Contest! The participants took a challenge to perform the best speeches for the contest. Let's welcome them: Olga Pustyntseva (Title of a speech: Wheel of Fortune), Svetlana Nesterenko (Title: How to become a human detector), Igor Buinyi (Title: Excitement), Svitlana Stavska (Title: Be aware of your dreams), Valentin Seleznev (Title: Looking for the happiness...). All speakers spent hours, days, weeks or even months of preparation for their performances! Of course, the preparation had to be very serious, because the Judges were very prominent Toastmasters!

Chief Judge: Mark Taylor (DniproHills)

Judges:

Lucy Povaly (ArtTalkers)

Anrey Grischuk (AmCham)

Tanya Nechaeva (ArtTalkers)

Yuriy Karabach (ArtTalkers)

 Maxim Kuzyava (DniproHills)

It was a great meeting, warmly conducted by charming Past Area Governor Yulia Dmytryshyn (TopTalkers).

The winners of the contest are:

1^st place - Svitlana Stavska

2^nd place - Svetlana Nesterenko

3^rd place - Igor Buinyi

Congratulations!
