Southern Lights Toastmasters Club was chartered in 1979 with the assistance of Distinguish Toastmasters Ron Chapman, George Andrews, and Neil Wilkinson.
Southern Lights was built on a solid foundation of experienced members wanting to help people become better public speakers. Today, we regularly have a third of the people attending our meetings with more than 10 years of public speaking experience. We have always had a good balance of experienced, advanced and novice public speakers.
