My speech...what do you think? Fix my grammer if you see a mistake. Note I don't mention the name of the other support group ever. It's irrelevant.

I would like to speak to you about the decision on whether or not Broken Arrow Christian Home Educators Fellowship should change the night of their monthly Ladies Meeting.

My understanding is that there are some ladies from another support group that would like for us to change our meeting night to accommodate them. As far as I know, this is an unprecedented request. Not in all the five years that I have been a member of Broken Arrow CHEF have I heard of this occurring.

My opinion on this matter is that BA CHEF should not change it’s meeting night. My reasons are two-fold and I appreciate you giving me the opportunity to voice them at this time.

First of all, how would setting precedence such as this effect BA CHEF in the future? Would we feel obligated to schedule our activities around other support groups? Would we have to check with others to make sure there is no conflict before we set up a field trip? Where does it end, once the precedence is set?

Second, the last few weeks have been very hard on those of us that are faithful members of BA CHEF. We need stability. Without continuity, I do not believe we will be able to obtain stability.

So I submit that BA CHEF change nothing in it’s meeting date or even dues, for that matter, as these are stabilizing elements and will help us get back on our feet again quickly.

Once again, I thank you for allowing me to speak on this matter. I want you to know how very much I appreciate it.

Shouldn't there be something in there about "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like"?

It's good. If you were sending it in writing, I'd clean up some of the wording, but it will flow just fine when spoken.
