Guests are always welcome, and there is no charge to attend as a guest. We meet on the second and fourth Mondays of each month, year-round, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at the West Goshen Township Building, North Five Points Road and Paoli Pike, just off Route 202. For directions, please visit this link.
You will find our meetings both entertaining and informative. Our meetings have a structured agenda, with members giving prepared speeches on almost any topic (usually three to five people, usually less than 10 minutes each), and also with topics or questions posed to members for practice in speaking spontaneously. Each speaker receives an evaluation from another member and also written comments from all of us.
Members set their own pace for completing the Communication and Leadership Programs (typically 12-18 months, but no schedule is required), and then move on to advanced manuals in topics of particular interest to them. No one is pressured into speaking, and it's a very supportive, encouraging environment -- we are friendly people!
Our semi-annual dues are $58, which are pro-rated for the month of application. New members also pay $20 for the Welcome Kit, which includes several booklets on voice, gestures, etc., and most importantly, the Communication and Leadership Program manuals, which detail the club program and the requirements for the first ten assignments.
