11 Sep - Area Contest for Humorous and Evaluation Speeches

Following our club's in-house Humorous and Evaluation Speech Contests on 23 August, the Humorous and Evaluation Speech champions of our club will be competing at the Area level contest. The detail for the Area contests is as follows:

Date: 11 Sep 2010 (Sat)
Time: 4pm - 6pm (G1 area)
Venue: PolyU/SPACE/HKU (will be determined very soon)

Fee per club: $250 (for student club: $150) with unlimited attendees.

Our club will pay the fee and our members can attend for free. Do plan to come and support our club champions.

I frequently get asked by our new members about Area, Division and District levels. To explain briefly, individual Toastmasters clubs are grouped under an Area. Hong Kong Toastmasters club is now part of Area G1, which consists of 5 clubs. Areas are grouped under a Division. In HK there are a total of 3 divisions i.e. H,K,G and we belong to Division G. Division reports to District and we are now in District 85 which is composed of Toastmasters Clubs from China, Hong Kong and Macau. Next up the hierarchy is Toastmasters International, where all the District Governors report.

Club -> Area -> Division -> District -> TI

After the Area Contest, the Division will hold the contest for all the Area Contest winners and following that the Division winners will compete at the District level during the convention in Beijing on 22-24 October.

Best regards,

Ong Ai Ai
