Linda steps up for Tarrant County Toastmasters

On Tuesday, February 15th, Afterburner Linda Coleman attended the Tarrant County Toastmasters meeting as a guest to fulfill her opportunity as General Evaluator. (See previous story.)

Linda brought a great deal of excitement and energy to the meeting, leading Shirley Deckard and Pat Quick to some super evaluations for speeches given by Louie McClain and Lisa Woodard, respectively. In her Ice Breaker speech, Lisa revealed how she made history as Tarrant County’s first female African-American Justice of the Peace. Way to go, Lisa!

Linda also commented positively on how the club conducted its meeting and on the club's spirit and energy. Afterward, she made some great suggestions for helping the club reach its charter strength of 20 people. The club coaches are working on implementing them now. Thanks so much for the extra effort, Linda.

Linda has achieved her Competent Communicator and aspires to be a DTM someday. You might have noticed her stepping up to various club opportunities as she works towards her Dream Big Competent Leader commitment. Linda has also attended the District Conferences and enjoys the fun and excitement that we all share during those events. She will help Rose Timmons with the Hospitality Suite at the District 25 Spring Conference coming up May 20th and 21st.

Linda Coleman… Thank you for all you do, and for being who you are.
