Vox Pop at Toast of the Country Club – A One-Sentence Challenge
Lets start with a little bit of fun as a Vox Pop.
Elise Lonsdale is linking her Toastmasters experience to her Business. Toastmasters encourages strong communication and business skills, growth and confidence.
“Toastmasters, Where Leaders are Made”
At Thursday night’s meeting of Toast of the Country Club Toastmasters, I decided to try something a little different — a classic Vox Pop: one simple question, one sentence allowed. I wandered around the dinner table and asked, “What have you gotten out of Toastmasters?” First up was Immediate Past District Director David Martin, who actually interviewed me when I first started the camera as a test of my wireless microphone for an upcoming speech — poetic symmetry! Then I grabbed a sentence from Wayne Eldridge, circled back for another from David, and continued on to President Jackson Green. The fabulous Marlene Sinclair, DTM several and currently our Vice President Education, took two turns — because of course she did. Rounding it out were the always-reliable Victoria Carruthers, our club member and Sergeant‑at‑Arms and Sue Dymond, the Area 34 Director.
Then I popped in for my own Comment, Elise Lonsdale
In true Toastmasters fashion, the challenge wasn’t finding people willing to speak — it was seeing whether they could keep it to one sentence. Let’s just say the results were delightfully humorous… and proved once again that Toastmasters are born communicators.
