Island Bay members welcome you to their Humorous and Table Topic contest WEDNESDAY 29th OCTOBER 7.30pm, St Hilda’s Church. It is some of our members first time, please come and support them and be inspired to give Toastmasters a try, it really is a wonderful education programme. The humorous contest is a speech competition where participants deliver a funny speech, 5-7 minutes choosing any theme. The table topics contest is an impromptu speech competition where contestants are given the same topic, and without any preparation they deliver a 1.5-2 minute speech.
If you were given a topic below could you talk for 2 minutes? Give it a try.
What’s the most sensible thing you’ve ever heard someone say?
What do you wish you spent more time doing five years ago?
It’s pretty scary at first but with practise you keep improving 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
