🚨 Big News! 🚨

Wine & Dine is now Toastmasters! 🎉 Yes, you read that right—hashtag and all, with a capital "F" in the middle!

So, how did this happen? When asked to describe their club in a few words, members kept saying "Serious" and "Fun"—and it stuck!

"Serious" because they’re an Advanced TM club with top-notch meetings, from themed events to their famous round-robin evaluations. They’re all about excellence!

"Fun" because, despite the seriousness, they bring the party with specialty meetings like The Lincoln Challenge and Jeopardy, plus a whole lot of caring vibes.

Join them on the first Saturday of every month, either in-person or via Zoom, and experience the magic for yourself! 🍷🎤
