Hobbies, activities, sports—most people have favorite pastimes. Specialty and advanced Toastmasters clubs help promote certain aspects of speech giving, presenting ideas, evaluation skills and entertaining an audience. A special focus can also help build membership. Think about joining a specialty or advanced club TODAY to begin honing your skills in debate, evaluation, humor, leadership, membership building, parliamentary procedure, political discourse, advanced presentations or storytelling!
Humor Specialty Clubs
Humor-Us – Humor Specialty
We are one of a select group of Toastmasters Clubs that counts HAs instead of AHs! In addition to the standard Toastmasters agenda of prepared manual speeches, effective evaluations, and impromptu table topics, we offer an opening monologue on current events, prepared and evaluated stand-up comedy routines, tool-time, and improv!
Whether you want to listen to humor, pursue a career in comedy, or coach others as they find their humorous sides, we provide an effective and supportive venue for pursuing your goals.
The Humor Mill – Humor Specialty
Are you tired of suppressing your comedic side? Or perhaps you are an experienced Toastmaster looking to add some humor to your speeches. The Humor Mill consists of a group of people with various levels of experience, different goals, and a variety of personality types. We all have two things in common: We are supportive, and we want to have fun while we learn. Stop by and attend a meeting as a guest. Try it, you might like it!
