The Open Alumni Toastmasters Club will not be having a Chapter Meeting nor a Club Contest this month.
Instead of having a Club Contest, we have preferred to appoint specific members from our club to represent our club in the upcoming Area B2 Speech Contest. Our club members will be assisting Telok Blangah Toastmasters Club in their Club Contest as appointment holders.
This Speech Contest will consist of the Humorous Speech Contest, International Speech Contest, Evaluation Contest and Table Topic Contest.
This Club Contest will be held online via Zoom during the COVID-19 period.
