So you think you’re a funny guy?

Wednesday, August 19th, 2009

movie-goodfellas-extendedApparently some of the members of Peninsula Toastmasters do. Our next meeting, on Thursday 27 August 2009, at 5.45 pm, will be the annual club-level humour contest.

To get you in the mood: check out Craig Strachan’s award-winning presentation from last year’s humour hopabout here. (This is a slightly different contest, but you get the idea!)

For our speakers, here are some top tips from the master himself.

Our contestants are:

Kirsten Pearson, Gerda van der Merwe, Thomas Bowman, Tim Wagner and Vanessa Clark (gulp! that’s me!). Good luck!

If you would like to join the meeting as a guest, please email pro@peninsulatoastmasters.info.

“Unlocking Your Creativity” by Ana Garcia

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

Here is a link to Ana Garcia’s inspiring presentation: “Unlocking your creativity” which she delivered to a number of clubs in Cape Town recently.  This is certainly food for thought for how Toastmasters Clubs can grow and thrive, but also applies to so many other aspects of our lives.

Enjoy – you can read the speech here.
