Who Joins Toastmasters?

Perhaps you’re wondering if Toastmasters is for you. Can they really help you become a better public speaker? A better presenter? And who really are the people that you would meet?

Good news. The Toastmasters program really does work. At every weekly meeting you’ll learn how to improve your communication and presentation skills and you get to practice in a safe, non-threatening environment, conductive to learning quickly.

You also learn by watching both new and very experienced members give speeches, presentations and evaluations. Opportunities to practice also include learning how to lead and conduct efficient meetings as well as evaluate speeches and presentations.

Members come from all walks of life and include: lawyers, business owners, executives, accountants, consultants, computer programmers and others to numerous to mention. One common goal shared by all is to learn, to become better speakers, and to help others overcome their fear of getting up in front of an audience. It’s a great group of individuals that get together weekly, to learn and have fun doing it.

You’re welcome to join us. Whatever your reasons, whether it’s for personal improvement, overcoming shyness or learning how to give a dynamic presentation to your management team you won’t find a better, more welcoming group ready to help you, anywhere.

You’re welcome to attend meetings without obligation before deciding to join. You will be introduced at the commencement of the meeting, but you won’t be required to speak or undertake a duty, except at the end of the meeting when you’ll be invited (but not required) to give a brief comment on your impressions of the meeting. The weekly meeting fee is $10. If you decide to join our club the annual fee is $163 (prorated depending on when you join).
