Hello Los Gatos ToastMasters!


  Welcome to our weekly email blast. The first one of 2019!!

  We finished last year by electing all our new officers and we so excited to get them district trained and growing their capabilities while supporting our club. (see pic of officers at bottom of this newsletter in about section). Our club membership is stable at over 20 people with a core group of regular participants filling out roles and practicing every week. We put together the nice infographic you see above using Canva and gathering data from our online resources. What do you think?

  Our club contest chair Barb has put together a wonderful venue for our speech & evaluation contest: Charley's LG bar which has a great space for practicing public speaking. Bring a guest and come enjoy a drink and support your club. Our big District conference is coming up as well. Don't miss this opportunity to network and learn something new. See Calendar section below for more details for each of these events.
   
  Scroll down for info about on our Social Get-Togethers, Club News and finally some Public Speaking & Leadership tips. Our tip today is a YouTube video of the 2017 World Champion of Public Speaking. Get excited by this as we will have another past champion featured at the ToastMasters Leadership Institute (TLI) training, seminar, contest scheduled for February 02, 2019. Register Now.
