Visit to Calgary

While in Cowtown last week I took an hour and a half out of my other duties to visit a Toastmasters Club - Miracles Toastmasters.

An interesting element that they have in their meetings is an "Outvocator". They start with and Invocation and end with an Outvocation. I really enjoyed going home with another little piece of inspiration to tide me over for the week.

Another component that I particularly liked about their meeting (besides the amazing members) was they scheduled in 15-30 seconds per person at the beginning of the meeting to introduce themselves and answer 1 question. The question that was asked the week I was there was - What was your favorite thing to do as a child. As I grew up in Calgary it was a timely question for me.

Marlene, Lera and Bob where especially welcoming to me and I really appreciated their friendliness and hospitality. If you are in Calgary stop by on Wednesday night and say "Hi."
