Toastmasters Meeting
A quick reminder about the Open Meeting with Dinsdale Toastmasters, Hamilton, New Zealand.
Tues 28th 7pm at the Western Community centre, Hyde ave, Nawton.
Anyone over the age of 18 welcome to attend.
feel free to PM me for more details about the open meeting, the Dinsdale Toastmasters club or Toastmasters in general.
I've been a member of Toastmasters for 27 and a half years and been with the Dinsdale club for almost 25 of them (am the longest serving member, tho our current President is the longest serving Toastmaster, he's been in the organization 5 years longer than me, but in the club for 22 years).
Of our 7 senior members we have a combination of 147 and a half years in Toastmasters but a combination of 115 and a half years in the Dinsdale club (4 of us had been previous members of other clubs). So if you decide to join our club there are several members with a ton of knowledge who can assist you in every aspect of Toastmasters life.
We look forward to hopefully meeting you tomorrow night (28th) however if you are unable to attend the Open Meeting you may attend any Tues night.
See you all soon.
Poll: Do you think banning gang patches is reasonable?
With the government cracking down on gangs, it is now illegal for gang members to display their insignia in public places whether through clothing or their property.
This means arrests can be made if these patches are worn in places like restaurants, shops, on public transport or ferries, and on airplanes. Arrests were made recently at a funeral.

Have you come across many roadworks sites recently?
The frustration of seeing a detour sign partway through your journey on the main highways possibly the new way forward when it comes to roadworks.
One of the latest areas to have a section of the road blocked off is State Highway 1 between Putāruru to Tokoroa as part of a massive renewal project that extends down to Waiouru.
