2nd Annual Holiday Season Food Drive: December 6th, 2014



The holiday is a season to celebrate, it is also a season to give.

Lambs to Lions is very proud to support the 2nd Annual Holiday Season Food Drive. All donations of non-perishable food items will go towards Salvation Army of Brampton for food banks in Brampton and Mississauga.

The 2nd Annual Holiday Season Food Drive will take place at Lambs to Lion's club meeting on Saturday, December 6th. This initiative was started by a fellow DTM member, Mark McKenzie.

Members and guests are encouraged to bring non-perishable food items such as canned fish, pasta, peanut butter, macaroni and cheese dinners, coffee (instant and perk). Other non-perishable food items are welcome. Lambs to Lions is aiming to collect a three cubic feet box (18 x 18 x 16) of items to help the community.

Open House meeting recap

Lambs to Lions had a successful open house meeting on November 1st.

To start off the meeting, Mike, the meeting chair provided us a brief history and timeline of Toastmasters International - just in time for the organization's 90th year anniversary.

Bhushan, our first speaker gave a lively contest-winning speech about his dependable friend that he cannot live without - his Blackberry.

Jocelyne, our second speaker gave an educational workshop titled: "Build it and they will come." She taught us some techniques and tips on how to structure your speech.

Then, the table topics master, Tiffany, warmed up the audience by asking some interesting and fun table topics questions. The guests had enthusiastic participation.

The guests enjoyed some free refreshment and mingling time with others while having a productive morning learning about Toastmasters.

Thanks to all who made this event an enjoyable one. Lambs to Lions is looking to hold more open house events in the new year.
