What happens at a Rostrum meeting?
The meeting starts promptly at 7am and over the next 75 minutes there are a number of items which cover Club news, practised and impromptu speeches and other fun items. One of the first speeches a new member will give is called an About Me and it is a 3 minute spot in which the new member can tell us a bit about their life, interests, family or friends. Most meetings have a period of whats termed General Business. This is a lively and very practical segment where it teaches us how to chair and handle meetings in an efficient and expedient way. For anyone who has to chair meetings or attend P&C meetings or sits on a committee this will be especially useful.
