Our club has a rich history of developing successful speakers. Our members have competed at the highest levels in our District and we have competed at the Regional Level.
The competition process starts with the International Speech and Evaluation Contests in the spring and the Humorous and Table Topics Contests in the fall. There used to be a Storytelling Contest held in the fall but it was replaced but the Table Topics Contest.
Club member, Clyde Jones won the 2011 Division D Evaluation Contest & International Speech Contest. He will represent our club at the District Spring Conference
Our club member, Dean Dimick, won the 2009 District Humorous Speech Contest. Another club member, Theresa Frasch, was there with her super secret video camera!

We have over 150 clubs in our district and each club goes through the same process.
You will hear some wonderful presentations, evaluations, and impromptu speaking with the winners from each club advancing to their Area Contest.
The winner of the Area Contest will compete at the Division Contest and the winner of that contest will compete at the District Contest.
The international speech contestant winner will continue to complete by creating a new speech for the Regional Contest and the winner of that event will create new speech for the International Contest.
To be listed on this page our club members had to win at the club, area, and division levels.
