Speech contests are a Toastmasters tradition. Each year, thousands of Toastmasters compete in the Humorous, Evaluation, Tall Tales, Table Topics, and International Speech contests. Competition begins with club contests, and winners continue competing through Area, Division, and District levels. Winners of the District level proceed to the region quarterfinals level. Following region quarterfinals, winners advance to the semi-finals for a chance to take part in the World Championship of Public Speaking®. Each year, more than 30,000 Toastmasters compete. District 100 is part of Toastmasters International, a non-profit educational organization that teaches communication skills, public speaking, and leadership skills through a worldwide network of clubs.

District 100 is hoping to raise funds to ensure that we break even at our Speech Contest, to be held on April 22, 2023. We plan to display any promotional materials you wish to provide to further your exposure to those in attendance at the conference.
