Division 'S' Humorous Speech & Evaluation Contest

On the 19th of October, Daniel, Tricia, Hwee Ling, Cheng Lin, Esther decided to spend their Saturday at Tampines Changkat CC for a day of learning from the best speakers and evaluators in Division 'S'.

Indeed there was a tough fight between the speakers and evaluators. As for Ronald who represented Cheng San TMC and Area S1 in the evaluation contest, he put up a tough fight although he did not emerge as the top 3. Nonetheless, having been able to compete at the division level is always a learning experience.

Here are the results!

Humorous Speech Winners
1st - Pragash (Title: Reputation & English)
2nd - Michael Leong (Title: The Art of Giving Presents)
3rd - Kelvin Thiang (Title: What May Go Wrong Will Go Wrong)

Can't imagine how such titles can be transformed into a humorous speech? You must watch contests more often then! They sure are funny.

Evaluation Winners
1st - Richard Sng
2nd - Benjamin Cheng
3rd - Cherlene Chua

Watching contests are great chances to learn from the others, as well as to see other Toastmasters in action besides our in-club people. So seize every opportunity to attend and watch contests, especially when it's FREE ADMISSION!
