Toastmasters Contests
Contests are a Toastmasters tradition. Contests allow Toastmasters to use the skills they've learned in their clubs both in communication and leadership. They're also a learning experience themselves. Finally, they're always a lot of FUN! Whether you're a contestant, an official, a volunteer or visiting us for the first time, we know you'll have a good time.
