Upcoming Events
Who? In October 1924, a group of men assembled by Dr. Ralph C. Smedley met in the basement of the YMCA in Santa Ana, California, U.S.A., forming a club to afford practice and training in the art of public speaking and in presiding over meetings, and to promote sociability and good fellowship among its members. The group took the name
Toastmasters. We are a local chapter of
Toastmasters International.
What? Today, Toastmasters International is a non-profit organization which gives its members the opportunity to develop and improve their public speaking abilities through local club meetings, training seminars and speech contests. Toastmasters International includes more than 220,000 men and women in more than 11,300 clubs in more than 90 countries.
Why? Experienced professionals and beginning speakers alike can benefit from our practical, face-to-face learning program. Whether you're speaking to the board of directors, your customers, your co-workers or your kids, Toastmasters can help you do it better. You'll learn and practice in a friendly, comfortable environment with people who are there for the same reason you areto become better communicators.
How? At Toastmasters, members learn by speaking to groups and working with others in a supportive environment. Our Toastmasters club is made up of 20 to 30 people who meet twice a month for two hours. Each meeting gives everyone an opportunity to practice conducting meetings, giving impromptu speeches, presenting prepared speeches, and offering constructive evaluation.
Visit our club today! Guests are welcome to visit our club to see a meeting first hand ... see what we are about and meet our members.
We meet the first and third (and some fifth) Thursdays of each month at 7:00 PM. Meetings are held at the Ingomar United Methodist Church, a few miles south of the I-79 Wexford exit. See Directions for detailed information.
Enjoy our friendly, supportive environment while learning to improve your communication and leadership skills.
