Two members of the Antigua Toastmasters Club demonstrated exceptional public speaking skills at Sunday’s Area 26 Contest, with one speaker securing a spot in an upcoming regional competition.
Cassandra Simon emerged as the International Speech Winner and Table Topics Winner and will advance to represent the local club at the Division E Contest, scheduled to take place during the District 81 Conference in Barbados which takes place from May 14-18.
Fellow club member Morvette Thomas delivered an outstanding performance, earning second place spot for Evaluation.
Simon’s advancement to the Division E Contest puts her in contention with top speakers from across the Caribbean region. District 81 encompasses the broader Caribbean Toastmasters community, known for its diverse membership and competitive excellence in public speaking.
The Antigua Toastmasters Club is part of Toastmasters International, a global nonprofit organization dedicated to improving public speaking and leadership skills.
Members meet regularly to practice prepared speeches, impromptu speaking, and constructive feedback techniques in a supportive environment.
Congratulations to them and I wish them well. Think I will join this group to help with my public speaking
Congratulations to the winners. I also wish Ms. Simon all the best in the upcoming competition. Knock em dead!
