University Toastmasters joins more than 12,500 Toastmasters clubs from around the world participating in the 2011 Toastmasters International Speech Contest this month. It is the world’s largest speech contest, with more than 30,000 presenters in 113 countries vying to become the next World Champion of Public Speaking. The contest is free and open to the public.


The International Speech Contest begins at the local club level and proceeds through the area, division, district and final levels. Eighty-two district semifinalists compete during the four-day 2011 Toastmasters International Convention held Aug. 17-20, in Las Vegas, Nevada, at Bally’s Las Vegas Hotel & Casino. Nine contenders make it to the final round on Aug. 20, where the winner is crowned the Toastmasters World Champion of Public Speaking.

University Toastmasters meets every Tuesday evening at the Stratford Inn, 555 Siskiyou Blvd. in Ashland. Meeting starts at 7 p.m.  Please arrive 10 minutes early.

We are a friendly group dedicated to helping each other practice the art of public speaking. Our members come from all over the Rogue Valley. We are students, professionals and small business owners; a mix of young and "seasoned"; some are new to public speaking and others are award-winning speakers. All have this in common: A love of learning and a great sense of humor. We believe a fun and supportive environment is the best environment for learning and growth.
