HS Toastmasters to meet Saturday

Hot Springs Toastmasters Club 7643 will hold its regular meeting at 8 a.m. Saturday at First Church of the Nazarene, 3804 Central Ave., and on Zoom.

The club plans the installation of officers the following week, for the 2022-23 program year, which runs from July 1 to June 30, 2023. Officer training sessions are offered later in the summer.

The Toastmasters International website, which has been undergoing the first major upgrade in 20 years, is now operational after a pair of delays. Certain new functions will be ready for use later in the summer.

Visitors are welcome to attend Saturday’s meeting at no charge, but are asked to contact the club in advance to allow for extra spacing, if needed. In-person participants are welcome to bring or wear a mask. A larger room can be arranged if needed.

For more information, use the “contact us” link on the Hot Springs Toastmasters Club website, https://7643.toastmastersclubs.org/, or call 501-262-1664. The Zoom address cannot be accessed through either website.

“Toastmasters is a supportive, inexpensive way to learn speaking and leadership skills. New members will be offered mentoring. Meeting roles rotate from one week to the next,” a news release said.
