There will be special guest speakers and educational breakout sessions.

  • Keynote Speaker: CEO Toastmasters International – Daniel Rex: An opportunity not to be missed, listen to the exciting and valuable insights shared by the CEO himself!
  • Meet the Best Speakers and Evaluators: You don’t want to miss the District 57 Evaluation Contest Target Speech, the Winning Evaluation Speech, AND the Winning International Speech.

The presenters we have planned for you will inspire and motivate you to practice applying these skills in your daily life and if you aren’t a Toastmaster already, you’ll want to join this amazing club!
