Our Spring time White Elephant Sale made a big statement! What an energetic group, the Conquorers, club 1066 Toastmasters! We had a huge success even tho’ our numbers were small! We sold over $300 and with our own Earl K. Wood matching us on the dollar; the Student Scholarship Fund will be coming along nicely! We had such a great time with each donor describing each of their items in a Table Topics type style…very unique and enjoyable! Susan Culey was our Auctioneer and did pretty well in her auctioneer techniques, keeping track of the $ increments with the help of Alan Brents and other savvy mathematical master- minds! What she lacks in skill she makes up in spunk! She just loves her fellow Toastmaster club members! but don’t we all! So… congratulations Toastmasters for another stellar performance!

Our second annual Star-gazers Party Saturday night hosted by Susan Culey and Sheldon Kagel was the “bright spot” of the weekend!!! The stars really came out that night! Our own dignitaries were there to shine…. Nancy and Scott Hoehn, Karl Righter, Tim Ricke, Alan Brents and our current, returning President Jerome Kalish really added extra pizazz to our spectacular evening! Sheldon’s telescope was truly amazing, showing us so clearly Saturn with it’s rings and other constelations as well! The Mohito’s flowed as the nights’ festivities included dancing and howling to the “Age of Aquarious” by the Fifth Dimension! A good time was had by all for sure! We’re sorry you missed it…but hey…..there’s always next year!

We had another great meeting last night at the Crowne Plaza Hotel! We have such a good spirit in our club 1066! The Best Speaker award went to Alan Brents and the Best at Table Topics went to lovely Patti Thomson! We are so proud of her! I am so proud of all of our members! We really are the Conquerors! We look forward to seeing you all at our fun night of autioneering for our White Elephant Sale, March 7, 2011 at 6:45pm. Hope you can make your load lighter by bringing in some of those things that you don’t have any use for anymore! The proceeds go to the Earl K. Wood student scholorship fund, so it is a worthy place to put your money! Hope to see you there!

We are so proud of our Toastmasters!!! Last night we had our International Speech and Table Topics contests and oh…how awesome they were! Joy Inzitari, Robert Donenfeld and our club mascot and legendary and most admired, Karl Righter were the winners of this wonderful International Speech contest! When you devote yourself to something that enriches your life, you are always better for following it through! Well done everyone! We are so proud of you! God speed to you in the upcoming contests! We’ve got the spirit of Conquerors! and we are!!!

Spring has sprung and it’s blooming an outrageously fun White Elephant Sale! Fully equipped with a zany auctioneer…Susan Culey! That’s right folks the time has come for our spring sale to benefit the Earl K. Woods scholarship fund by worthy students learning the fine art of public speaking! We hope you’ll join us for this jolly affair! Bring in those old things that you need to get rid of or some of those gifts that you are just dieing to re-gift to someone!… Any one!
