Our next meeting on July 29th will be a Speech-A-Thon. A Speech-A-Thon is different from a regular meeting. It provides more speech opportunities and only has Speech and Evaluation portions. Audience will listen to various speeches given by the speakers and benefit from the valuable feedback given by the evaluators.

Come and enjoy the Speech-A-Thon!

Good news!  Last evening was the first ever Area 29 International Speech and Evaluation Contest (that's because our district was re-designed last year and we're in a brand new area) and Princeton Toastmasters stole the show, as you can see by the results.
 
INTERNATIONAL SPEECH CONTEST
 
First Place:  Abhoy Sircar, Princeton Toastmasters!
Second Place:  Deborah Giles, LWD Toastmasters
 
EVALUATION CONTEST
 
First Place:  Ingo Schmuecking, Princeton Toastmasters!
Second Place:  Nancy Dowd, State Street Speakers 
 
Both Abhoy and Ingo put on a brilliant performance.  They made us all proud.  You can ask any of the 17 (yes, that's 17!) wildly cheering PTM members in the audience — our club was close to half the crowd in the room.  Be sure to check out their smiling faces and shiny trophies in the attachment.
 
So what happens next?  Well, the show must go on.  Our heroes move on to the next level, which is the Division F Contest.  It will be held on Saturday, April 17 at the Horsham Public Library, 435 Babylon Road, Horsham, PA 19044-1244 from 10:30 am to 1:00 pm.  Please come out and support our club.
 
Congratulations to Abhoy and Ingo — we're behind you 100%!
 
Keep striving!
 
George Philip
President
Princeton Toastmasters!!

With so many new communication channels available today, web video, email, web conference, it's inevitable that Toastmaster projects will begin to move "online".

Have you heard the news? Our very own Princeton Toastmasters Club President, George Philip, captivated the audience with his oh-so-very Humorous speech at the Club, Area, and Division Contest Levels and is on his way to the District 38 Fall Conference this coming weekend to take the entire district by storm! Laughs – and some tears – are sure to be had by all!

The conference will be held at the lovely Woodlands Inn and Resort in Wilkes-Barre, PA, and is packed with educational programs and great fun. The 'Some Enchanted Evening' Black-and-White Affair/Dinner Friday is said to include lively entertainment with Ballroom Dancers. Saturday's Parade of Banners will be a sight to behold, and the District-Level Table Topics and Humorous Speech contests hold the promise of masterful communicators and spirited laughter. Surely this is one district conference you don't want to miss!
