Friendly Reminders and A couple websites I found.

  Fellow Pioneer Toastmasters:

 Just a friendly reminder to be forward thinking and look out a few meetings on the schedule and plan what you would like to do.  The club depends on us,  the members,  to fill the roles each week. I try to schedule 4 weeks out as best I can.  I also have the meeting templates out usually at least eight weeks. 

Several things you can do to help the club. 

Mark your attendance.  If you know you won't be at a certain meeting in the future go into the schedule and mark yourself as not attending. That way you will not be scheduled. 

Next is if you have a desire to speak or serve in a specific role in the coming weeks you can feel free to schedule your self as you wish. 


 I came upon a couple websites that I found to be wonderful. 

The first one is SOBRIEF:   https://sobrief.com/



 This website is a website that summarizes books. The Banner when you first go to the site says : Read any book in ten minutes." This to me would appear to be very useful for many things. I would say that reading a book is best but reading its summation and key points is better than not reading at all.  Also is a great tool for review of ken points in a  book.  This site could also be a great resource for speech ideas and so forth. 


The website is Z-library and is a free ebook site. https://www.zlibrary.cc/



  While I fully am continually impressed with our city libraries and the online accessibility to things I would add this website to your favorites and when you are looking for a book check this out. Ebooks you can download.  All free.
