FEATURING


GRACE CLUB 

by TAMMY KASTERKE, DTM
#clubreporter
The best part of waking up is… Toastmasters!  That’s exactly the “cup of coffee” I shared with the Grace Toastmasters club.  Twice!  And oh… it was good!

They serve up 2 kinds of coffee.  Coffee for the “in-person” taste.  And coffee for the “virtual” taste.  I’ve tried both!  No matter which you choose, Grace is the Place to get your day started with confidence.
 
While still dark outside, Grace Toastmasters are rising to prepare a Toastmasters Meeting like no other.  When the clock strikes 6:45AM, the gavel sounds and an energetic “Good Morning!” fills the room.  I knew I was in for treats.  And, yeah… a trick too!   

The TREATS?  Definitely my new friends…  Gwen, McKee, Rebecca, Dan, Wendy, Maria, Bryan, Debra and Chris who made my visits amazing.  And, the Toastmaster-y atmosphere was complete with their club banner, agendas, timing lights, podium, colorful speaker ribbons, basket, voting slips and fun themes (1st visit - Summer Vacations; 2nd visit - State Fair).  

They hold true to the 3 main parts of a Toastmasters’ meeting while including an invocation, club business, the PLG duty holder (that’s Parliamentarian, Listener, and Grammarian), a Jester, and a BIG 3
ribbon! WOW… their 1-hour Toastmasters’ meeting was the Caramel Pumpkin Spice Latte  for my day.
 
The TRICKS?  T-h-e-r-e  i-s  something  s-p-o-o-k-y on the table!  It’s a real live… Ah Counter bell!  My eyes bulged for a moment at this rare sight.  I’ve not been to many clubs with a REAL bell.  And even scarier, I was the Ah Counter at the Summer Vacations meeting!  Intimidating?  Yes.  Fun? Yes.  They encouraged me to “ding” for crutch words.  I did and it turns out… Grace Toastmasters are masters at controlling their crutch words. That Ah Counter bell really works!



Whether you take the “in-person” coffee or the “virtual” coffee, the best part of your day will be a good o’ cup of Grace Toastmasters!  The treats, and tricks (there’s really no tricks 😊), of Grace Toastmasters are guaranteed to grow YOU to be the Toastmaster you want to be.  Visit Grace Toastmasters today!
