Greater Gadsden Speakers Area 24 Fall Speech Contest
Greater Gadsden Speakers, Gadsden's Toastmasters Club, would like to congratulate two members for outstanding performance during the Area 24 Fall Speech Contest.
Michelle Williams of Attalla, AL and Jolynn Striep of Ohatchee, AL both represented our club in the Tall Tales and TableTopics Speech Event.
Michelle Williams won the Tall Tales contest and will be moving to the next level of competition at the District 77 Speech Contest in Destin, FL. Here, participants from the entire Southeast will be competing in telling the best wild tale they can. The winner of the contest will move to the regional and have the opportunity in competing and the national and international levels. We want to congratulate Michelle for her outstanding performance and would like to show our support of her from our community. Feel free to join us in support of Michelle and her journey on our FB page: Greater Gadsden Speakers.
Jolynn Striep took second place in the Tabletopics event. During this portion of the contest, contestants are all asked the same random question and are required to answer within a set amount of time without any preparation and no idea of the subject prior to the contest. This component of the contest tests one's ability to respond to questions in a clear and educated fashion. This is a difficult skill to hone and we congratulate Jolynn for her hard work in preparation for this event.
We could not have asked for better representation from our club. Toastmasters is the perfect program to perfect your communication skills and take them to the next level.
Greater Gadsden Speakers meets every at the YMCA of the Coosa Valley from 7-8 P.M.. We always welcome guests. Please come and join us to become that speaker and communicator you want to be.
Best,
Tracy Rowland
President
Greater Gadsden Speakers
