Launching Toastmasters: October 13th

October 3, 2009 in Events by ntmadmin

Dear Friends,

We were very pleased that more than 20 people showed up at our first info meeting, and now we are confident that we can start having real meetings soon.

Based on the questionnaire we received from participants at last month’s info meeting, we have decided that starting October after the National Holiday, we will begin to hold weekly meetings every Tuesday night from 19:15 until 20:45 at Kongzi Academy, starting from October the 13th.

We are hoping to have sufficient people at the next meeting willing to sign up and pay the membership fees. We would need at least 15 members will to join in order to get started. Eventually we hope at getting around 30 people actively involved in Nanjing Toastmasters, which should be no problem in a city this big! So if you are already ready to join at this point and become a co-founder of Nanjing Toastmasters, please reply send an email to info@nanjingtoastmasters.com with the subject “I am ready to join Toastmasters TODAY!”.

We are still figuring out the exact budget, but for certain it will be no more than 600 RMB per individual on a half-year basis, which covers initial membership fee, a half-year membership for 24 weekly meetings and the Toastmaster’s starter kits.

Either way, the details of our next meeting:

Venue: Kongzi Academy in Confucius Temple Area;

Date: Oct 13 Tuesday;

Time: 7:15-8:45PM.

Please confirm your attendance by replying to this mail by Oct 11.

We are looking forward to see you all at the discussion meeting on Oct 13.

Please see attached map for details. Kongzi Academy is in the second floor of the large old building in backyard of the Confucius Temple.
