Local Toastmasters Club Looks to the Future with New Name

PITMAN, N.J. - Oct. 21, 2021 - PRLog -- The club recently announced on its social media platforms: "Our new name encompasses the two pillars of Toastmasters - Speaking and Leadership, as well as our location, Gloucester County, NJ. It signals a new beginning for our club as we emerge from a very challenging past 18 months."

"Speak to Lead is one of only two Toastmasters clubs in Gloucester County, a county with a growing population of over 300,000 residents" said Club President Jeff Pickens. "There is plenty of potential for growth. We provide a supportive, positive, non-judgmental environment where members have the opportunity to develop their communication and leadership skills."

More and more developing leaders are realizing that the ability to present in a public setting - both in-person and virtually -  requires confidence and experience. " 'Practice makes perfect' applies to our bi-weekly meetings," states Vice President of Education Don Netz.

Mr. Netz added: "We believe that the combination of preparing and evaluating speeches with a fun portion of the meeting featuring impromptu speeches provides an ideal environment to gain confidence and hone speaking skills."

All are welcome to visit Speak to Lead - Gloucester County as guests. The club meets twice a month, virtually on the second Monday of the month and in person on the fourth Monday of the month. Virtual meetings are conducted on Zoom; in-person meetings are conducted at Hope House, Pitman, NJ (https://goo.gl/maps/vCBMtXscU6AAoq629). For meeting information go to the following website:
