Club Humorous Speech and Evaluation Contests

With Officer Installations done, it's time to make the Club Contests the top priority! Each contest needs to take place in August so the club champion has time to prepare for the Area Contest in September (date to be determined). Of course, the clubs don't need to have a contest...they can simply select someone to represent them at the Area level, but traditionally the club-level contest is the best way to do this.

Here's the Club Contest Schedule I have so far:

• NPS: Fri, 10 Aug, 12:10pm
• Bayview: Wed, 15 Aug, 6:00pm
• Speakeasy: Wed, 22 Aug, 12:05pm
• Monterey Peninsula: Thu, 23 Aug, 6:45am
• TGIF: TBA

Peninsula Pros will not hold a contest, but rather will hold their traditional Toastmasters Night Out, in which the club champions of each club are invited to practice their speeches and evaluations on Wednesday, 29 August, at 6:00pm at the Monterey Beach Resort Hotel in Monterey. There the club champions will receive round-robin style evaluations on how to improve their speeches for the Area Contest in September.
