Tri-County Member Competes in Contest
Tri-County Club member Bill Fulstick (right) was presented a ‘Certificate of Participation’ by Toastmasters Area 1 Governor Joann York. Fulstick competed in Saturday’s Toastmasters Area 1 Table Topics Contest which was held in Springfield.
Bill Fulstick from Virden represented the Tri-County Toastmasters club in the Area 1 Table Topics (impromptu speaking) Contest on 10-10-09 in Springfield, IL. During the Table Topics competition, each contestant including Fulstick, was to give a 1 to 2 minute unrehearsed response to the question “You have three wishes. What would you want?”
The Tri-County Toastmasters club will next meet on Thursday October 15, 2009 at 6:30 p.m. at the Virden Area Community Center. The speakers will be Todd Austin and Bill Fulstick. The Tri-County club, along with many other Toastmasters Clubs throughout the world will be celebrating the fact that Toastmasters International is marking it’s historic 85th anniversary this month. Over 5 million people have benefitted from the Toastmasters program over the years. Toastmasters Clubs currently meet in 106 different countries. Toastmasters was originally founded by Dr. Ralph Smedley, a native of nearby Waverly, IL.
