As the year’s end approaches, it’s time to gather the fruits of our efforts and celebrate the growth we’ve sown. Tonight, we’ll explore how to plant the seeds of strong speaking skills, nurture them with practice and feedback, and ultimately reap a harvest of confidence and achievement. *** ### 🎤 What to Expect ✨ **Warm Welcome & Icebreaker** “Seedling Stories” – Share one small effort you made this month that’s already showing signs of success. ✨ **Prepared Speeches & Table Topics** * **Feature Speeches:** Our speakers will showcase how they’ve cultivated their communication skills—listen for the techniques that helped them flourish. * **Harvest Table Topics:** Draw a prompt asking you to describe a moment when persistence led to a breakthrough, and deliver a 1–2 minute impromptu “harvest” story. ✨ **Evaluation & Feedback** Help our growers refine their craft with structured feedback from: * 🧠 **Speech Evaluators** – Highlighting strengths and suggesting fertilizing tips for even richer growth * 🗣️ **Ah-Counter** – Tracking every “um,” “ah,” and filler so the message stays crisp * 📖 **Grammarian** – Noting vivid language, strong metaphors, and tonight’s Word of the Day * ⏱️ **Timer** – Ensuring each “harvest report” stays within its time frame *** ### 🌍 Why Toastmasters? Since 1924, Toastmasters has been the field where speakers cultivate confidence and leaders grow. Each meeting offers a chance to sow new skills, tend to challenges, and harvest success—together. *** ### 🎯 Ready to reap your rewards? Join us on December 15th—bring your stories of growth, celebrate your progress, and let’s harvest success as a community. See you at the meeting!
