THE Stanthorpe Toastmasters are about to reach a major milestone, and they’re hoping for lots of old friends to help them celebrate.
The club is searching for the hundreds of former members to help mark its 1000th meeting of continuous education of oral communication and leadership skills on Saturday 8 October 2016.
Stanthorpe Toastmasters Club is one of the oldest Toastmasters clubs in Australia. This is a testament to those early Stanthorpe club members who could see the benefits of Toastmasters and started the club in a small rural town of Qld 44 years ago.
Today, the benefits are still being recognised with the club continuing to provide encouragement and challenges to its members.
In addition, the club works within the community on an ongoing basis, providing sessions in oral communication skills through the Youth Leadership and Speech Craft courses as well as adjudicators for the annual Year Seven Granite Belt Lecturette Competition.
Past member who would like to know more about the 1000th meeting, can contact the club by emailing stanthorpetoastmasters@granitenet.com.au. Alternatively, call Peter Duncan on 0404 145 938 or Tony Hassall on 4684 1322.
