Summer really is over and it'll be darker when we meet at 6:15am at the Valley Cathedral Cafeteria. It makes it cozy ! :-)

TM dues for the 2nd half have been gathered and the portion for the Toastmasters International Office in Mission Veijo, California has been sent in. Valley now sports a membership of 33 active members ! We Love It. That's an increase of b new members over just a couple of months ago ! The SPECIAL EVENT of 25 September featuring Valley's own Steve Meisenheimer speaking on " A Life Fully Lived " was a smashing success. We had over 15 guests and a large membership turnout for the event. Way to go Valley, and Steve. Also, hold the good thought for Mike and Darren, competing this month in the District 3 Taple Topics and Humorous Speech contests.
