Greetings, Mike & fellow Federationists, very good ideas mentioned here.  One of my Toastmasters meetings starts with a reading of our purpose of our meeting.  May I suggest we begin our meeting with reading the NFB statement that begins with, “The National Federation knows...”. This reminds us why we meet & May educate our guests as to what we’re all about.  What do you think?
