Speaking skills touted By JOHN CHARTERS Martin Meyer of the Selkirk Toastmasters Club International was the guest speaker Oct. 23 at the regular dinner meeting of the Castlegar Rotary Club. “*I was one of the most ill-at-ease and nervous students in high school,”’ he told his audience, ‘‘and I continued so in my career. Then I heard of Toastmasters, attended a meeting, liked the format and have been attending ever since.” It is a cooperative program in all aspects of communication skills and members proceed through basic and advanced programs at their own speed, he explained. The club is the third largest in the world, has 7,200 clubs worldwide and, like Rotary, any member is welcome to attend and take part wherever he or she may be. Member- ship is about equally divided between men and women. While the club is primarily concer- ped with self-improvement of its Members, it does promote youth leadership training classes and crash courses for contenders in such en- deavors as Castlegar Queen contests and Rossland Golden City Days. Meetings are held every Monday at Selkirk College from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. precisely. Visitors are welcome and fees are rock bottom, he said. He was thanked -{and evaluated) by former Toastmasters Club. mem- ber Dr. Dave Williams. “Can't help myself,” Williams said with a smile, “‘it’s the training. He gave Meyer top marks. “Not a single ‘um’ or ‘ah.” ”* In the course ofthe business part of the meeting, tethered, chair- man of the RotafyExchang® Student Program, reported that’ his commit- tee had interviewed nine high school candidates for outgoing exchange and short-listed five, pending further interviews with parents. He also an- nounced that there are two incoming students — a young man from Japan and a young woman from Argentina — and asked for host parents for them. Preparations for the annual Rotary Smoker for Nov. 2 are going well and the Rotary Anns are helping to prepare the refreshments. Tickets will not be sold at the door and prospective purchasers are asked to contact a Rotarian before the opening date. Catholic Women's members (from left) Brita 1 Wi Cansovebe end Cldsbie Frtees lent woe some items ribet mewk Women prepare for fall bazaar The Castlegar Catholic Women’s League has been busy preparing for its annual fall bazaar — an event ~- local Christmas shoppers have been enjoying for well over 30 years. The bazaar will feature an array of baked goods and handcrafted items. So what does the CWL bazaar have to do with diabetes? p ber is National Diab month and the CWL women have decided to add a new dimension to their offerings this year — there will be a special table of baked goods prepared and labeled for diabetics. At their October meeting, CWL members invited Jacque DePaoli, hospital dietitian, to speak about the diabetic diet. Of course, the question of “goodies” and Christmas baking came up. As a result, the group made plans to further investigate the idea of diabetic “*goodies.”” So mark Nov. 17 on your calen- dars from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at the Legion Hall and plan to attend the CWL bazaar.
