West Awake Toastmasters offers an elevated oratorical experience

West Awake Toastmasters is an exceptional community of advanced Toastmasters who meet monthly via Zoom and biannually in person.

In these hallowed environments they share their collective experiences of oratorical presentations.

West Awake Toastmasters can proudly trumpet their communication skills. The advanced level of discourse within the club is a source of inspiration and learning for all. This environment provides valuable opportunities for personal growth and development.

Chartering in 2019, the club has been led by outstanding presidents. Current president Anne Ruane, Ballina, brings exceptional experience to the club having served as area director and div. director.

Currently in expansion mode, the club is reaching out to established clubs in the area and district, encouraging them to stream members to West Awake. The experience gained with the advanced club will have a beneficial effect for the members themselves and their clubs.

VPPR Tom Flynn commented that it is in the interests of every club from the area and district to have active voices and contributors in West Awake Toastmasters. The benefits, he said, cannot be measured in sound bites but in the added value for respective clubs, which benefits the wider community.

To quote Marcus Aurelius: “Have I done something for the common good? Then I too have benefitted.”

Centuries later Ralph C. Smedley, Toastmasters founder, trumpeted those similar sentiments which today reverberate around the globe.

In West Awake, every member’s voice matters, its membership dedicated to helping each other reach new heights in oratorical excellence. In a welcoming and stimulating environment, advanced speakers refine their speaking skills and receive constructive feedback knowing the supporting scaffolding of likeminded individuals is there nurturing and supporting them each step of the journey.

Whether you are an accomplished speaker looking to further refine your skills or someone eager to learn from some of the best in the field, then look no further than West Awake Toastmasters. Your club has the details and along with your club, officer corps will be proactive in encouraging you to take that vital step in personal development.

To quote Ralph. C. Smedley: “We learn best in moments of enjoyment.”

Stay connected. Stay inspired. Keep the spirit of West Awake.
