Building eloquent speakers from the tongue tied and terrified Welcome!
Lee Iacoca, when he was the head of Chrysler Corporation, required all his
top managers to join Toastmasters. Although
you were probably unaware of Lee Iacoca's advice, you have inquired about
Boardwalk Toastmasters - Thank you.
We are a warm friendly support group dedicated to helping each
other overcome the fear of public speaking, and to improve our
communication skills. We meet every first and third Wednesday of the month at the Chatterbox Restaurant (with some exceptions - please see the "Meeting Schedule"), 9th and Central Avenue, Ocean City, New Jersey. Meetings start at 6:30 pm sharp (PLEASE NOTE NEW STARTING TIME)and usually last until 8:00. They are dinner meetings and we order off the menu, but it's not required. You are cordially invited to come and observe. If you are looking for a place where you can hone your communication skills, where you get to learn by doing, not just reading about it from some book, then this is your group. Even if the thought of speaking before a group terrifies you...it did me before I joined, you can overcome it. Realize your destiny. Become the person you are meant to be. As FDR said, “The only thing you have to fear, is fear itself.” Now, you may not want to develop the skill to hold an audience speechless, as they hang on your every word. You may not want the total respect that comes to those who speak with eloquence. But why go through life never realizing your full potential?! Why not be the very best you can be? You have nothing to lose but your limitations.
Dues are $74 per
year with a one time new member fee of $25 ($20-International, $5-Boardwalk).
