by Victor Theocharides CC, Club President, Florida International Talkers
On Sunday October 18, 2015 Florida International Talkers held a very special event. Florida International Talkers toastmasters club had an international day, an open house which attracted members from all over the community. We had both speeches and entertainment and a great keynote speaker. Pim Parpart, DTM did a thai dance that was great. She also wore a Thai outfit and played Thai music. This made the audience feel as if they were actually in Thailand watching a show. Zhuo Li conducted a speech about the difference between American Chinese food and real Chinese food. Zhuo Li is an exchange student from China and truly gave the audience a clear picture of how Chinese food and American Chinese food differ. Victor Theocharides CC, delivered a speech about his experiences in Tobago. William Capote, Mayor of Palm Bay was our keynote speaker and delivered a speech about the importance of toastmasters and how it can help advance our career.
