Chair Update for Chapter Members
by Paul Willey, CPA

Paul Willey, CPAThe hot summer months have gone quickly.  Chapter Toastmasters has met each Tuesday morning at 7:30am at 2626 Cole Street #400.  Priceless and practical advice is available to our Toastmasters through the traditional ice breaker speech.  Thanks to Anita Bailor who has shared her office conference room and her unique accounting experience for the Dallas Chapter group.  Thanks also to Ben Brown who has kept the process lively, and you can be sure the meetings are only one hour in length.
