This meeting will be our competition meeting where we have members who will take part in our club humorous competition. This will involve up to 6 members giving a speech between 5 and 7 mins that has a humorous element.
Be prepared to laugh and support people crafting the skill of engaging their audience with humour.

Online on Zoom: After registering you will receive an email from mkconfidentspeakers@gmail.com with the zoom meeting and passcode.
We start promptly at 12 noon and finish at 1.15pm. We kindly ask our guests to arrive 15 minutes before the session begins, at 11:45.
You are welcome to join our meetings as a guest so that you can experience the fun of Toastmasters and see how it could benefit you. There's no need to deliver any speeches at your first meeting (unless you want to!) and this meeting is a competition meeting so there will be less opportunity to speak but lots of opportunity to learn and ask questions after the meeting.
