What a treat to go to the first meeting of the reinvented PowerTalk club in Motueka last week. It was nice to see such a flurry of excitement and enthusiasm as the new members all presented a fun and enjoyable programme. Congratulations to Jo for Speaker of the Evening.

HOT OFF THE PRESS! Woohoo! Great and exciting News. 😊
Powertalk Nelson-Waimea Members and friends. At the end of last year we went into recess due to a low membership but since then we have had a number of requests to join the club...yahoo...And just like the rising of the Phoenix, we are able to take club out of recess.
The first club meeting will be April the 2nd in Motueka. It's amazing how the tide turns as the majority of the new members all live in Motueka. Watch this space for more and exciting news re the new club revival 😊
Meetings are the 1st and 3rd Wednesday of the month, next meeting Wednesday 2nd April 2025. The meeting starts at 6.45pm sharp at the St Johns Hall,15 Courtney Street (inside the Jack Inglis complex). Turn left from Courtney Street, there will be a carpark on the left, the hall is part of the ambulance building on the right.

END OF AN ERA
To all our amazing members, past members, life members, followers and friends, after 48 years as a speaking club in Richmond, Powertalk Nelson-Waimea is closing its doors.
It has been a fabulous journey; over the years, we had a few name changes from first chartering in 1976 as an International Toastmistress club, then to ITC (International Training in Communication), and finally to Powertalk.
We have helped hundreds of men and women to gain valuable life skills and had a lot of fun in the process.
As from the 31st December 2024, we will no longer be operating.
Thank you to all our members present and past who have contributed to making Powertalk Nelson-Waimea a wonderful club.
