Fear and courage

Dan Vann was the man and toastmaster today at our Boaters meeting, leading us with the compelling theme of Fear and Courage.

Ian Thornton relaunched his Toastmasters journey with his third Ice-breaker titled ‘TBC’ (to be continued). Louise Landess  told about a blog she is launching which will be celebrating great stuff being done in Christchurch. Then Sabine Pary gave us an educational speech highlighting the range of opportunities avaialble to us as members of Toastmasters.

Dee Bigelow followed by provoking our thinking with some engaging table topics on the meeting theme of fear and courage. She left us all with an interesting idea to consider: if you could turn your greatest fear into a small cuddly toy, what would you name it?

The star of the show was Dan who pulled it altogether as Toastmaster despite last minute absent roles due some of our members being unwell.
