Maitland Toastmasters held another fun meeting last week, and enjoyed welcoming four guests.
We celebrated Melinda's birthday with a cake and birthday themed Table Topics.
Cathy presented an entertaining speech entitled "Got to be out before the snow comes."
Our newest member, Monica, read a moving poem that she'd written herself. Cathy, Melinda and Paul were presented with awards, and we also heard some great evaluations from our visitors, Pieta and Nellie.
If you've ever wondered what Toastmasters is about, please come along to one of our meetings on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of the month. You can join in person at Easts Leisure & Golf Club or online. We'd love to meet you!

Maitland Toastmasters enjoyed another great meeting on Tuesday. We were pleased to welcome some guests: one was attending his first ever Toastmasters meeting, and one was a former member who hadn't been to a meeting for many years.

Melinda conducted her official Area Director visit. She also ran the Table Topics session, with the theme of International Days. Steve provided helpful evaluations for each speaker.

We also looked at our Club Success Plan for the coming year.

If you'd like to improve your communication, leadership and public speaking skills in a friendly and fun environment, please join us. We meet in person at Easts Leisure & Golf on the second and fourth Tuesday of the month, or online via Zoom.
