Redstone Toastmasters

🏆 Behind every great speaker is someone who helped them grow! 🎤👏

Our Tuesday meeting was all about celebrating National Coaches Day and recognizing that coaches aren’t just found on the sidelines of a sports field. Sometimes they’re mentors, teachers, colleagues, or even fellow Toastmasters who encourage us to keep growing!

That’s one thing we love about Redstone Toastmasters. We’re constantly learning from, encouraging, and cheering each other on! 🙌

Now, let’s give it up for this week’s winners and achievers! 🎉

📚✨ New week, new word to add to your vocabulary!

This week’s Redstone Toastmasters Word of the Week is ADROIT! 🗣️

Ever met someone who’s just naturally skilled at handling situations or making something look effortless? That’s what it means to be adroit—clever, skillful, and resourceful!

At Redstone Toastmasters, we’re all about expanding our vocabulary, sharpening our communication skills, and having a little fun along the way! 🙌

👉 Swipe to learn how to pronounce and use adroit in your next conversation or speech.

👀 Now stay tuned to see which of our members worked this word into our October 6 meeting! Did they nail it? We’ll see! 😂

💬 Your turn! Can you use adroit in a sentence? Drop it in the comments!

🎨 The Art of Expression was in full effect at Redstone Toastmasters!

Our September 29 meeting was all about the many ways we express ourselves. Because communication isn’t just about the words we say—it’s also in our tone, body language, emotions, and how we connect with the people around us.

And we switched things up a little! Instead of our usual Table Topics, we brought some fun into the mix with an emotional game that put our members’ expression skills to the test. 😂🎭

Of course, we had some wins to celebrate:

🏆 Best Speaker: Elena
🏆 Best Evaluator: Landon
🏆 Best Emotional Gamer: Tami

And a BIG congratulations to our very own Elena, who was recognized as District 77 Area Director of the Year! 👏🏾🎉 We love seeing our members grow not only as communicators, but as leaders—and Elena’s recognition speaks to her leadership and commitment to serving clubs throughout District 77.

This week, we’re keeping things a little laconic. 😉🎤

Our speakers may have a lot to say, but sometimes the best communication is about making your point without using a lot of words!

That’s where this week’s Word of the Week — laconic comes in. We’re challenging our Redstone Toastmasters members to work it naturally into the conversation during our meeting.

👀 Check back to see who used “laconic” correctly during the meeting!

Until then, we’ll take our own advice and keep this caption… well, laconic. 😂
