Welcome to Innisfail Toastmasters
At times, and often with little advanced warning, we all have to speak in public; be it a staff meeting where we feel strongly about something that ought to change and we need to convince the others; or be it at a function like a wedding or a funeral. The fact is, the one who can speak will be listened to.
The Innisfail Toastmasters Club is a there for people to practice just that – speaking in public. All members are there because they feel a need to learn and therefore everyone is supportive to others with the same desire. We warmly welcome those who want to combat their nerves and fear of dellivering in front of a crowd. We are committed to polishing our communication and leadership skills and helping others do the same.
All Clubs go through cycles of change. Innisfail Toastmasters has a longer history than many, having survived the disruption of Cyclone Larry to recently celebrate its 40th Birthday. The Club is currently facing a growth and revitalisation phase with guests and interested newcomers frequently attending meetings.
During the last eight months the club has trialled dinner meetings and numbers of different venues have been visited, however there were issues (eg disrupting other customers, cost) that in the end could not be surmounted. Our venue of choice now is the Community Support Centre as this boasts modern, comfortable facilities suitable for presentations and the cost is manageable. It also has kitchen facilities so we can supply supper for participants at break time.
Times:
2nd, 4th Monday of each month.
7:30pm – 9:30pm (please arrive at 7.15) NOTE NEW TIME!
