The Spring Division Contest
The spring Division B contests (International Speech and Table Topics) were held on Saturday, April 13. Fortunately, the contests went smoothly without any major disruptions or delays. The experience of the team showed through this time, as things were more organized and streamlined than ever before. Although the Division contests are much smaller than the combined Area levels, we nevertheless finished after just 2.5 hours (well short of our 4-hour time limit for the venue). If only all of the events could go this well. Onward and upward, we are nearly finished with our Area Director positions for the year! This was the last major, mandatory event aside from the final DEC meeting and elections in May. Now there is time to make a few additional club visits, at our discretion and without mind-numbing paperwork, and generally celebrate the accomplishments of our clubs as the year winds down.
