Speech contests coming!

CTI Techtalkers invites you to come to our two annual Toastmasters Fall Contests.

On Wednesday, Sept 14 - Table Topics Contest from 12 noon - 1 pm
Hear contestants exercise their impromptu speaking skills as they take turns to answer the same question. They have one to two minutes to give their reply and each will be judged based on speech development, effectiveness and delivery of the response.

On Wednesday, Sept 21 – Humorous Speech Contest from 11:45 - 1:15 pm
Humorous speech is a blast! It is always a fun and entertaining hour to listen to contestants tell their funniest stories. They each have 5-7 minutes to deliver their humorous speech and will be judged based on criteria such as: speech development, audience response, appropriateness and delivery.

For both contests, guests are very welcome. Members please contact Helen if you would like to be a contestant or volunteer for one of the key roles to support the contests. 
Winners of the table topics and humorous speech contests will go on to compete at the next level - the Area J41 Contest on Oct 6, 2011.
