Toastmaster of the Year

Randy Haukom had a terrific year in Toastmasters and was recognized as the Toastmaster of the year for our club and also for our area of clubs. While picking up accolades in our club for attendance, providing excellent speech evaluations, and giving the most speeches, Randy was also voted as most helpful. This stems from the stellar support he provided to all of us while serving as the club VP-Education. He also served as acting club President while Becky was on Maternity leave. His speaking earned him a second Competent Communicator award as well as the Advanced Communicator Bronze. That's twenty speeches right there. Plus he picked up a Competent Leader award. And if that wasn't enough, he was traveling all over the district to help other clubs get started. Congratulations Randy, you've helped us all become better Toastmasters and you were an inspiration. Thank you. We look forward to your service as club VP-Public Relations and as our Area Governor as well.

 

We presented the following awards, based on tallies through the year (e.g. for attendance and word of the day usage) and votes from the club membership (e.g. for Most Helpful and Toastmaster of the Year). Congratulations to all the winners. And congratulations to HealthToasters for making President’s Distinguished for the third year in a row!
