What a fantastic club contest we had last Tuesday, 15/9/2015. Lorenzo was the contest chair and led us perfectly through this wonderful evening.
Six table topic speeches about the change of coffee flavor over the last decades and two wonderful humorous speeches about marriage and just a normal working day. I was not aware that normal life as a married man and a working person in the office can be so funny. It was so good to laugh! Thanks to all who were there to make this such a good event.
Here you can see the table topic contestants:
And the winners of the table topic contest were:
- #1 Damion
- #2 Clarissa
- #3 Edgar
Here, you can see the contestants and winners of the humorous speech contest together with Lorenzo, the contest chair and president and the chief judge Carlos:
- #1 Paul
- #2 JP
Congratulations to the winners of these contests but also to all contestants. Winning is not what counts most but getting out of your comfort zone and participating in a contest. That’s it already!
However, even though we laughed a lot we also had mixed feelings (in German we say “observing something with a laughing and a crying eye”). And this was because our President Lorenzo Gios had decided to leave us and Munich and to go back to Italy. While we wish him all the best for his future endeavors we will miss him a lot.
Ciao Lorenzo, good luck and hopefully see you soon!
Clarissa Muschner will be the interim President in addition to her VP Education role until Martin Mittermaier will take over in November. Thanks, Clarissa, for filling the gap.
See you all at the next Munich Toastmasters evening on 6 October 2015.
