Hello Hidden Tech, One of the best things you can do for your career is to cultivate strong public speaking skills. Whether you're pitching an idea to prospective clients, or leading a seminar at a trade show, public speaking allows you to communicate to the world what you've got to offer. Toastmasters has a program to help you move up the learning curve as a public speaker and presenter - a program that's both effective and lots of fun. Speakeasy Toastmasters, the Hadley chapter of this international organization, is having an Open House on the evening of Wednesday, May 6th. Everyone is invited. We'll meet at 6:30 PM at the Elaine Center, 20 North Maple St., Hadley, Massachusetts. You can find more information on our web site: http://www.toastofnorthampton.org/ (And yes, we meet in Hadley, even though our web site is still called "Toast of Northampton.") Hope to see you there, Dave Anderson
