Club Contests, Team Building- Bowling, and New Members...What an AMAZING Couple of Months!

Simply Speaking's International Speech and Table Topics Club level Contests. Every year, we have members of the club competing in the top four contests the Toastmasters organization offers. Members from this club have won three of the top four contests in the past four years, to include Ian Humphrey going all the way to becoming a finalist in the World Championship of Public Speaking last year. This talented and high caliber club is poised to win all four by next year, fully earning the title "The Club of Champions"!



Belinda Corleyturnipseed (with contest chair Rod Gamblin) went all the way to becoming a finalist at the District Championship. As her mentor, I am personally proud of her accomplishments in the club in a very short time.



Champion speaker Ian Humphrey (with contest chair Rod Gamblin) became a finalist in the Division Contest against his toughest competition to date by a very close vote.
