| Many individuals, both current and past members of Glen Abbey Toastmasters, have taken up the challenge to promote the status of our club to new heights. Through their relentless determination and dedication, time commitment and leadership, the club continues to achieve the objectives set out at the beginning of each new season. In order to grow and attract new members, a club must not only provide a supportive and positive learning environment, but balance the educational component with 'fun' events, theme nights and social get-togethers to foster camaraderie and good will, an element often lacking in today's high-stress business environment. The Glen Abbey Toastmasters membership thanks the following past and
present members for their valued contribution: |
