There are two Separate contests and an individual may compete in both.

HUMOROUS SPEECH (5 to 7 minutes) - To recognize the value of humor in speaking.
EVALUATION CONTEST (2 to 3 minutes) - To encourage development of evaluation skills.
At the beginning of the contest a five to seven minute test speech will be presented. Each contestant delivers an evaluation of the same speech.

Each Toastmaster club has their own contest or selection process to choose a representative from the club. Winners advance through the organizational structure of clubs in four steps of a tournament (Club - Area - Division - District 6). The finals are at the District 6 Toastmasters 2009 Fall Conference at Sugar Lake Lodge, Grand Rapids, Minnesota on October 23 & 24.

  • See the District 6 Speech Contests page for more general information on contest preparation.
