Online toastmasters clubs

I found today an end of year 2017 in my Facebook memories. Or perhaps, it was from January 2018. Our club between the first few online clubs created. Witty Storytellers Online, was the 6th in line. Nowadays there are more then 26!

In plus, we were the first Speciality online: all about Storytelling! Personal storytelling. From Advanced club, we decided to become Community club, so we  can welcome also beginners or not yet toastmasters to become TM in our club.

Everyone has a story to tell! In fact many stories.
Firebirds and Netizens chartered the same time, even if Netizen is told to have been before with 5 days. They paid faster it seems. Truth, they also existed a lot longer online, a lot longer before chartering.

Huron is a society club, closed.
Buddies was first all from Chinese Toastmasters, new ones and, first payed by a benefactor. Nowadays, it is a lot more diversified.

Witty Storytellers Online, the first ever Speciality online club, was created by me with a group from which most arrived from Firebirds. We also remained members of Firebirds or other clubs we come from for long years. I am still (or again) member of Firebirds Collective, was absent only for one year.

As for now, 27 online clubs formed, and here they are from TMI website. Choose at least one! So much can be learned in an online club: online presence more and more necessary to learn too.
And a lot of camaraderie. Knowing each other most often better then from a club we can touch each other. We touch each other emotionally. We see our children. Each other rooms, most often too. Learn Zoom, that is mostly used nowadays.
