You are here for a reason:

• To lose my fear of public speaking
• To improve and polish my public speaking skills
• To further my career
• To invest in myself
• But most of all: to become accomplished leader in personal and professional endavours

If you join us you will be immersed in a group of people who are not driven by a pursuit of mere awards and recognition, but moreover we are looking for lasting interpersonal and leadership skills, and a place where we can safely practice them. As you help others by participating in the meetings, taking on meeting's roles and even club officer positions, you will gain the confidence to speak in public and become a charismatic leader. You will have many opportunities to speak in public, receive valuable feedback and support, and improve your communication skills. More importantly, you will have fun participating and learning!

We know that it sounds incredible but Toastmasters helped many people like you since 1924 to overcome their fear of speaking and soar into positions of power and influence. Some notable Toastmasters were Tim Allen, actor, and Mrs. Fields Cookies; Debbie Fields. You can see longer list of famous Toastmasters here. Click on why join? link for more reasons.

We encourage our future members to explore other area clubs to get familiar with unique advantages that each club offers and heartily welcome all new members in our ranks. For more help or information, please go to our Contact Us page or visit us during our next meeting - you will find many extended hands waiting to help you.

A testimony from one of our members:
I just wanted to thank all of you for something. A few months ago, when I joined Toastmasters, I was able to speak to groups, but giving a 5 minute speech, in front of ten people was a task for me. And now, just a few days ago, I gave a 20 minute speech, no notes, in front of over a hundred people! WITHOUT FEAR! That's what a good Toastmasters club can do! So thanks!
