The Blue Ridge Toastmasters Club is open to anyone who wishes to improve their skill and/or comfort level with public speaking.  We suggest that you join us for a meeting to see if you would like to join us.  It is the best educational bargain going - membership dues are only $45 for 6 months, and there is a nominal $20 fee to join, which pays for the membership materials you receive when you sign up.  Membership also comes with a subscription to the Toastmaster, a very informative magazine published by Toastmasters International.
