Loughrea Toastmasters Club launches next Monday
Loughrea Toastmasters Club officially launches next Monday in the Slieve Aughty Suite of the Loughrea Hotel and Spa with a free demonstration meeting.
This is a chance for people who want to improve their communication and leadership skills to see what Toastmasters is all about. For many, public speaking makes them nervous at best and they will do anything to avoid it.
Back in 1924 Ralph C Smedley recognised the need for people to learn to speak publicly, run meetings, and plan programmes. Today, more than 90 years later, there are over 350,000 members in 16,400 clubs worldwide.
Loughrea Toastmasters will be the fourth club in county Galway along with Galway, Oranmore, and Tuam Toastmasters clubs.
Martin Foran, club organiser for the new club says; “Loughrea Toastmasters provides a supportive and positive environment where members have the opportunity to develop their communication and leadership skills.”
After hearing from the area director, members and guests will enjoy a demonstration Toastmasters meeting including a prepared speech, table topics (impromptu speeches ), and an evaluation.
Guests are not expected to speak on the night but are welcome to participate in the topics and questions and answers sessions. This promises to be a fun, entertaining, night, giving guests a taste of a typical meeting.
Loughrea Toastmasters meets every second Monday in the Loughrea Hotel and Spa.
