Greetings!

We West-Wichita Toastmaster Club members enthusiastically invite you to join us and become a TOASTMASTER!

You may ask, “What is Toastmasters?” Well, a brief history may be helpful to answer your question.

In October 1924, a group of men assembled by Dr. Ralph C. Smedley met in the basement of the YMCA in Santa Ana, California and formed a club “to afford practice and training in the art of public speaking and in presiding over meetings, and to promote sociability and good fellowship among its members.” The group took the name, “Toastmasters.” Since the its beginnings, Toastmasters has become known internationally and more than three million men and women have benefited from the organization’s communication and leadership programs.

The West-Wichita Toastmaster club was formed in 1976 and meets in the Star Lumber’s Training Facility.

Club Mission:

Club Objectives:

The reason persons become associated with Toastmasters International and become a Toastmaster are varied. Some become members because, perhaps, their ‘Boss’ says they need to, or for personal benefit. No matter whether the ‘Boss’ says to join or not, have you ever been in a situation where you wanted to say something but did not know how to get your thoughts in order? Of course, and everyone has at some time in their life.

A major benefit of joining Toastmasters is to help you accomplish your dream. Another benefit is the self-confidence you will gain by becoming a member of our West-Wichita Toastmaster’s Club. Lasting ‘Friendships’ coupled with ‘Encouragement’ are to be made and experienced in this group. Through help from everyone in our Club, you will be able to speak before anyone or anywhere in any situation. You will know your skills have been sharpened to effectively, verbally, communicate your thoughts.

Come meet with us and join our Club!
