2011 - 2012 Theme:
"Do What's Hard, While Things are Easy"
On October 22, 1924, a group of men assembled by Dr. Ralph C. Smedley, met in the basement of the YMCA in Santa Ana, California, U.S.A., with the purpose of forming a club to afford practice and training in the art of public speaking and in presiding over meetings, and to promote sociability and good fellowship among its members. The group took the name Toastmasters. We, the Caesar Rodney Toastmasters Club, are a local chapter of Toastmasters International.
Today, Toastmasters International, a non-profit organization, gives its members the opportunity to develop and improve their public speaking skills through local club meetings, training seminars and speech contests. Toastmasters International includes more than 250,000 women and men, in more than 12,500 clubs, in more than 104 countries.
Experienced professionals and beginning speakers alike can benefit from our practical, face-to-face, self-paced learning program. Whether you're speaking to the board of directors, your customers, your co-workers or your family, Toastmasters can provide you with the tools to do it better. You'll learn and practice in a friendly, comfortable and supportive environment with people who are there for the same reason you areto become better communicators.
At Caesar Rodney Toastmasters Club, members learn by speaking before groups and working with other members in a very supportive environment. Caesar Rodney Toastmasters Club is made up of 20 to 30 members who meet twice a month for an hour and a half. Each meeting gives members an opportunity to practice conducting meetings, giving impromptu speeches, presenting prepared speeches, offering constructive feedback through evaluations as well as developing leadership skills.
