Rotary and Toastmasters now working together

Rotary and Toastmasters working together

creating opportunities for professional

growth of both Rotary and Toastmaster members

Please read the announcement letter from RI President Mark Maloney. This is a wonderful opportunity for our members and that of the members of Lewisville's 3 Toastmaster Clubs; Westside Baptist Church Toastmasters, Flower Mound Toastmasters and Parkway Toastmasters. While we are very early into our relationship, our members are encouraged to learn about Toastmasters, invite Toastmaster members to our meetings and seek synergies where our clubs working together can make an impact for members and the community.
