Our next scheduled Speech A Thon will be Thursday, June 26, 2014.
What is a "Speech A Thon"? Why does it sound like a marathon?
Because the concepts are somewhat related. Katy Toastmasters regular meetings occur on the first, second and third week of the month. Those meetings generally follow the structure laid out in the sample agenda in the sidebar on the right. ( Sample Agenda of A Meeting)
This agenda allows for three speakers on each of these first three Thursdays. Our club is 54 members strong and growing. To give all the members a chance to hone their speaking skills we introduced the Speech A Thon. These are tentatively scheduled on the fourth and fifth Thursdays.
The Speech A Thon format is what it sounds like. More speeches. In fact it is composed of only speeches and evaluations. This allows our members to advance their speaking goals and opportunities at a much quicker pace. These, like our regular meetings, are very well attended and guests are always welcome.
Toastmasters and Honored Guests welcome to Katy Toastmasters !! Our meetings are a learn-by-doing workshop in which members develop their speaking and leadership skills in a no-pressure educational and entertaining atmosphere. This blogs shares and introduces the concepts of Toastmasters and presents a sample of the prepared speeches by our members.
