A Spaghetti Dinner
with all the Trimmings
will be cooked by "TheTopThree"
for all District 3 Toastmasters who sponsored
5 New Members between July 1, and November 30, 1996.
"The"TopThree" offered this
dinner idea as an incentive, a way to encourage
the sponsoring of more new members.
When word got around that there was some
concern regarding the "Italian cooking qualifications of "TheTopThree," past District Governor Mike DiCerbo, DTM, stepped in and
offered to provide them with quality training---by an expert---himself.
It was done. On October 12, "TheTopThree" were trained.
Qualifying Toastmasters can look forward
to an enjoyable Spaghetti dinner (with all the trimmings---salad, garlic
bread, beer and wine) prepared by "TheTopThree" under the supervision
of chef DiCerbo---who has allowed use of his acclaimed spaghetti recipe.
Toastmasters achieving the 5 New Members
minimum or more will be notified after the November
District Progress Report (DPR) is received (the week following December
15).
Mike DiCerbo demonstrates how spaghetti is properly prepared. Mike, Blenda,
and Nancy celebrate "TheTopThree's" successful completion of
the DiCerbo Spaghetti School.
