We will be arranging transportation for those who might want to attend. Please let me know if you might be interested.
We are going to the Division! Congratulations to Sal and Rochelle!
Another activity of note was the two visits of The Computer School Debating Team. The boys and girls from Jerry’s son’s public school participated with enthusiasm and one of the boys even took home a table topics ribbon. Thanks to all of you, especially those who stepped up at the last minute to make the meeting such a success.
Jerry received this note from the school’s headmaster:
I am thrilled that this enterprise has worked out so well. You have provided a highly valuable experience for these students, one that I am sure they will proudly remember far into the future. It is wonderful to hear that our students were up to the task. . . . You did more for this student’s self-esteem than you know. Your thoughtfulness in putting this together serves as a model for how parents can enrich the school experience of young adolescents.
On behalf of the entire CS community, I would like to offer my most heartfelt thanks to you and to Toastmasters for providing this unique opportunity for our debate team members. We will certainly take you up on your invitation to continue this partnership in the future
