In keeping with long-standing tradition, members of the North Delta Power Talkers comported themselves extremely well at the area contest Humorous Speech and Table Topic Contests.
Akshat Nagpal drew the most laughs with a polished, well-paced speech pointing out the oddities in the Imperial System and American "football". This earned him second place and a trip to next week's Division Contest. Both 1st and 2nd place winners proceed to the next level.
Our own Bob Rorison, who was bulking up the representation from The Word, a club that he is assisting, finished second in the Table Topics contest by giving a touching, heart-felt answer to the question, "How do you define success?'
Finally, the diminuitive but scrappy Val Adolph ultimately emerged from the raucous scrum that was the Table Topics competition clutching the 1st Place Certificate by answering the same question with her own inimitable definition of success.
Well done, our champions! Proud of you all
Now on to the Division Contests!
