Rancho Santa Fe Toastmasters to hold ‘Fact or Fiction’ speech contest

Come join in the fun! RSF Toastmasters International is sponsoring “Fact or Fiction,” a speech contest on Aug. 14.

The audience will test their ability to separate truth from fiction at this annual event. The premise: a two-minute speech by club members which draws on experiences from their own lives. The entertaining twist is that their stories will include two parts truth and one part fiction. The goal is to fool the audience! Prizes will be awarded to the guests who identify the most fibs and facts. Additionally, Toastmasters with the “Wildest Imagination” and “Most Convincing” stories will also win a prize.

Fact or Fiction is scheduled for Tuesday, Aug. 14, from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. at the RSF Community Center, 5970 La Sendita, RSF, 92067. Refreshments and appetizers will be served.

Toastmasters is an international public speaking group designed to sharpen members’ abilities to think and speak clearly. Meetings are held every other Tuesday from 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. through the summer months, returning to their usual weekly schedule beginning Sept. 11th.
