club visitations

i would have to say that the most organized, efficient and professionally presented club i have ever attended was the TDSupreme club, on lunchhours Wednesdays while Z was prez. The ah counter tallied every breath taken and the exact number of seconds taken for each aspect of the meeting etc.

the club that meets in the Harbourfront Community Centre building on Wednesday nights has some really creative, dramatic speakers that win Area level contests, and was recognized by the District Reps as one of the strongest. They have the quizmaster role, but give teeny, tiny evaluation note pages to each other.

the Stoneroad club is very friendly, and has guelph farm topics and friendliness and handles an oxford learning type diversity well. they have many young members! they also have yummy snacks at contests and their meeting time attracts a large number of visitors that they graciously accomodate. and some of their membership is really longstanding and development in members seems really significant.

my fave club, the one where i feel i belong best is in Johnson Hall at University of Guelph (you remember, with the boots and cowboy hat in the corner). i tire of our time management issues because of the over-competition for word of the day, but not only do we have incredible intellectual, varied and quality example speakers, the evaluations are Bang On and Very Meaningful. Only club members of more than 6 projects are aloud to have a speech evaluator's role on the agenda!
