Contests

Lake Mary Toastmasters conducts four speech contests every year. The International Speech Contest and Table Topics Contest are held in the Spring, and the Humorous Speech Contest and Evaluation Contest are held in the Fall. Winners advance to the Area Contest, winners at the Area Contest advance to the Division Contest, and winners at the Division Contest advance the the District Contest. The Humorous Speech, Table Topics, and Evaluation Contests end at the District level, however the winner of the District International Speech Contest advances to the International Semifinals, and the winners of the International Semifinals compete in the International Finals for the title of World Champion of Public speaking.
