PROPOSED TOASTMASTERS CLUB IN CONWAY TO MEET NOVEMBER 6th

   On Thursday, Oct. 17, an introductory meeting for Toastmasters was held at Granite State College in Conway. The purpose of the meeting was to demonstrate to those who attended the benefits of Toastmasters membership and to answer all questions related to Toastmasters and the forming of a local club. Nine people have shown a serious interest in forming a new Toastmasters' chapter. They need at least 20 to charter a new chapter. On Wednesday, November 6, 2013 another organizational meeting will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. This meeting is again open to the public and everyone is invited. 

   Do you want to improve your communication skills? Would you like to learn how to conduct effective meetings? Would you like to give/receive better feedback? The first meeting was a complete success but we need you. Granite State College is supporting the new club by providing the conference room at the college for a meeting venue. The club is also requesting corporate sponsorship to help defray some of the costs associated with chartering and maintenance of a active, vibrant Toastmasters Club.
