Speech contests are an important part of the Toastmasters educational program. They provide an opportunity for Toastmasters to gain speaking experience, as well as an opportunity for other Toastmasters to learn by observing proficient speakers and organizing events outside their club.

This contest season marks our return to in-person contests for the first time since 2020! Join the representatives from our Division C clubs as they compete in their division-level International Speech & Evaluation Contests.The winners of these contests will advance to the district contest at our 2025 District Conference.

See the Toastmasters International 2024–2025 Speech Contest Rulebook for eligibility requirements (and all other rules), and the District 28 contest resources page for more information on running, supporting, or competing in speech contests.
