First, our Club Level International and Table Topic contest is scheduled for April 3rd this year. The event is scheduled to be chaired by Jean, with Monica our Area Governor coming out that evening to be our Chief Judge. Being a club level event, we are planning to let our members practice their skills by taking on some roles, such as judging. Certainly there are practical reason to do this "in house" but certainly it is good practice and experience for our membership, and if you can't practice these roles at our own club, your learning curve would be a lot longer.
Our second event, and one we are very happy to HOST is the Area International and Table Topic contest is scheduled for April10th @ 6:15 p.m. at our normal location at the Masonic Temple. In the case of an Area Contest, we are just hosting the location and the Area will handle the actually contest. In this case, the formality of the event goes up a notch and the roles have to meet the guidelines solidly -- so Judges and so on will be from other clubs.
Contestants, Guests, and Toastmaster Members are all invited to these events. The Area event will have a door fee -- probably $10. We would love to see you out.
