On August 30, 10:00am PDT, Las Vegas Storytellers Toastmasters 6633880 will present "The World's Worst Evaluators Contest". Laugh and learn in an exciting educational event led by Bill Parker DTM, master evaluator and past district evaluation champion. Cheer on your favorite bad evaluators like "The Whitewasher", "The Regurgitator", or "The Critic" as they deliver outrageous, exaggerated, over-the-top evaluations. There are no winners in this hilarious contest. You will never look at feedback the same way.
