The Supper Club Toastmasters meeting
Toastmasters is a unique organization, in which every member gets a chance to improve in themselves.
The mission of a Toastmasters club is:
The mission of a Toastmasters club is to provide a mutually supportive and positive learning environment in which every individual member has the opportunity to develop oral communication and leadership skills, which in turn foster self-confidence and personal growth.
Through this mission, each Toastmaster gains a clear understanding of the club's purpose, and the organization as a whole benefits from a shared set of values and goals.
The vision of Toastmasters International is:
Toastmasters International empowers people to achieve their full potential and realize their dreams. Through our member clubs, people throughout the world can improve their communication and leadership skills, and find the courage to change.
Toastmasters International Values:
Toastmasters International’s core values are integrity, dedication to excellence, service to the member and respect for the individual. These are values worthy of a great organization, and we believe we should incorporate them as anchor points in every decision we make. Our core values provide us with a means of not only guiding but also evaluating our operations, our planning and our vision for the future.
The Aims Of The Supper Club of Simi Valley, Moorpark, Thousand Oaks and Ventura
The aims of our Club are to help our members to:
• Speak from the diaphragm
• Improve their abilities to communicate effectively
• Listen and read analytically
• Undergo leadership training
• Appear before audiences and to creditably express their thoughts
• Obtain fair and constructive evaluation of their efforts toward self-improvement
• Have access to educational materials and opportunities which will give them skill and experience in the preparation and delivery of speeches
• Increase their knowledge of the rules of parliamentary procedure and their skills in conducting meetings, particularly in group discussions
You - The Member
Toastmasters International is dedicated to assisting individual members in their personal development through the art of listening, thinking and speaking.
To make the most of this opportunity, come to meetings and give apologies when you cannot. Participate and offer your enthusiasm, other members will be encouraged by your interest. Give the same support that you would like to receive. Show appreciation and applaud when appropriate.
Toastmasters is a self-help program, where you learn by participation. As the great Roman statesman Cicero said: “the skill to do comes from doing.” Don’t wait for the Vice President Education to schedule you, volunteer for a role or to give a prepared speech. Other members want you to succeed and will be supportive.
A Typical Meeting
Our meetings open with a call to order by the Sergeant at Arms, who opens the meeting. The Sergeant at Arms, once he/she opens the meeting, calls forward the President of the club. The President, then calls upon a member to inspire the meeting with a short Inspiration.
Then, the Toastmaster will make any changes to the program for the night.
The Toastmaster
Once the changes have been made, the meeting begins. At the Supper Club meeting, the Toastmaster starts the meeting, by calling on the speakers in order of their presentations. After the formal speeches comes the impromptu part.
Table Topics
Table Topics (or impromptu speaking) follows. The Toastmaster introduces the Table Topics Master for the night. The Table Topics Master: prepares a set of short questions designed to stimulate and develop impromptu speaking skills. Usually the topic is announced first, in the form of a question and then the respondent’s name is called where he or she is asked to give a mini speech regarding the topic in the form of an answer. These mini speeches range from 1 to 2 minutes and are evaluated at the end of the meeting by choosing the winner of that particular part of the meeting.
After all prepared speeches have concluded, we move into the speech evaluations.
The final part of the evening is an overall evaluation of the program by the General Evaluator and their helpers.
The evening concludes with the presentation of awards by the awards master, who then will call back up the President of the club to conclude with the meeting, make any general comments, ask guests for comments and make any other announcements that there might be for the club, area, division, or district.
We meet on the fourth Friday at a different restaurant every month.
Our next meeting will be held on Friday, August 28, 2009. The Toastmaster will find the restaurant, make a flyer and fill the roles. This will teach the lead of that particular meeting how to organize a special event.
Our club is open to all interested people.
The next meeting date is always displayed at the top of every page of this web site.
