Service also extends to leadership throughout Toastmasters District 66 (Greater Virginia) as Area Governors, Division Governors, District Treasurers, District Secretary, and even District Governor. In addition we served as mentors and coaches to other clubs to ensure they remained strong in content and membership numbers.

At Toastmasters, members learn by speaking to groups and working with others in a supportive environment.

Each meeting gives everyone an opportunity to practice conducting meetings, giving impromptu speeches, presenting prepared speeches, and offering constructive evaluation.
