Karen (membership officer) 0273901487
hope to see you at one of our meetings.
PS Toastmasters is fantastic for helping people build up their confidence and provide them with great public speaking skills.
I have seen many many mice join but eventually leave as an elephant so Toastmasters works. On a personal level it helped me gain the skills I needed to deal with my daughter's medical teams when she was a child/teen.

Councillors working to a June 2028 deadline for new water model

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

The clock is ticking and the pressure is on as Hamilton City Council elected members were told whatever water delivery service they chose, it must wash its face financially.

Councillors have until December 12 to come up with a preferred option for water delivery, which will then be open for public consultation.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

More alcohol restrictions, more lighting, busking rule changes and a whole lot of lobbying - these are some ways Hamilton leaders want to sort out the CBD.

Crime and anti-social behaviour in the area has been in the spotlight after recent news of a man defecating in the street near a city pub and another who flipped tables out the back of a bar after being found scrounging cigarette butts and asked to leave.

What would you do if it was your job to fix Hamilton's CBD? Tell us your reasons in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
