β¨ Dublin South Toastmasters β 15th Anniversary Celebration π β¨
What a wonderful evening as we celebrated 15 years of Dublin South Toastmasters! ππ€
The club was delighted to welcome former members, guests, and friends as we reflected on a journey that has helped hundreds of people grow in confidence, leadership, and communication since 2011.
π Special guests included club founder Eugene Creegan, former members John Kelly DTM and Claire Grogan, along with visitors Tarun, Richie, and Seamus.
π€ Highlights from the evening:
β’ John Kelly shared the story of how Dublin South Toastmasters began and what those early meetings looked like.
β’ Paddy Collins spoke about overcoming fear, practising courage, and building confidence through life and Toastmasters.
β’ Eoin Keane led an engaging Table Topics session, giving members and guests an opportunity to share their experiences and communication challenges.
β’ Chris Werner DTM moderated a fascinating panel discussion with Clare, Eugene, and Garvan Gallagher on βToastmasters Journeys: Growing through DSTM.β
π The evening's Crystal Anniversary theme was beautifully carried throughout the meeting by Toastmaster Orna Mulhern, who brought warmth, elegance, and thoughtful touches to every part of the celebration.
β After the formal meeting, members and guests enjoyed cupcakes, coffee, conversations, and plenty of reminiscing as old friendships were renewed and new connections were made.
π± A lovely finishing touch saw guests leaving with packets of flower seeds, a fitting reminder that growth often starts with a small step.
π A huge thank you to Orna Mulhern, Eoin Keane, and Eric Mullaly for helping organise such a memorable celebration, and to everyone who has contributed to Dublin South Toastmasters over the past 15 years.
Here's to the next chapter of learning, leadership, friendship, and growth! π₯
