[Gary Fuhr]

For those members who missed this evenings meeting, Wayne Ostrowercha was
presented with the Bud Singbeil award for excellence and dedication to our
club for the July to December 2007 term.  Congratulations Wayne!  Keep up
the outstanding work!  See Metrospeaker website for pictures of Wayne
receiving his award.

 

Here are a few of the comments received from our members:

 

"Since I've been a member, he is the only person who presents our club in
the provincial-wide conference"

 

"Excellent Toastmaster role model"

 

"Wonderful feat this year!"  (getting to District level in Fall Humourous
Contest)

 

The Bud Singbeil Award

For the benefit of our relatively new members, this award is named after Bud
Singbeil, a vibrant toastmaster who was a traveling salesman.  Bud was a big
husky fellow who sold beauty products for spas and hair salons-proof that
you can't judge a book by its cover.  Bud traveled a lot and made it a point
to check out many Toastmaster clubs while on the road.  Marc Hurtubise and
Sheree Gable met him at a conference back at 2003 and he included Metro
Speakers in his visit shortly afterwards where he blew those in attendance
away with a great table topic and a heartfelt speech during closing
comments.  Sadly some years ago Bud suddenly passed away.  We award the Bud
Singbeil plaque in his honour twice a year:  once around Christmas and once
again at the end of June/beginning of July.  The award stands for excellence
and dedication in our Toastmaster club.
