Meadowbank Toastmasters is ON!

Barry Shaw from Meadowbank Toastmasters

This Tuesday evening, 9th March, sees Meadowbank get a visit from a lovely Toastmaster Guest Speaker, Maxine Nisbet.


She will be our 3rd Speaker of the evening. Before her, two club members will present their Pathway project speeches and progress along their chosen path of building their skills in speaking and gaining confidence in leadership!


Maxine is well worth listening to.
Whether she is participating in Humorous Speech contests, Table Topics or Evaluations contests, she is an entertaining and informative speaker who deeply appreciates how Toastmasters has helped her in her life, and wants that benefit to be experienced by others in our community!
Her title is "Toastmasters Encourages All Members" (TEAM).


Come at 6.45pm for a warm welcome and a start at 7pm.
