San Francisco Toastmasters meeting registration (for May 23, 2012)

Guests: please print your registration and bring with you.

Unless you are a member of San Francisco Toastmasters, you must register for a meeting to attend.


We also recommend checking out other San Francisco-based Toastmasters clubs. OUR CLUB MAY HAVE A MEMBERSHIP FREEZE ON, and has limited availability ... some other excellent clubs are eager for new members. You can find clubs by zip code at District 4 Toastmasters Site. Please check it out.

* MEMBERS AND REGISTERED GUESTS: arrive by 5:45pm and bring photo ID to obtain an identification badge from the security guard on duty at the front desk. Security will not admit you to the building without a valid photo ID! Wear your badge during the meeting and return it to the front desk guard afterwards.

ATTENTION REGISTERED GUESTS: We're sorry, but guests cannot be admitted late (after 6:05pm).
Members and registered guests, please arrive by 5:45p, so our meeting can begin promptly at 6pm. The room is often full. This makes late arrivals disruptive. For this reason, Front-desk Security enforces a strict cut-off: guests are not issued passes after 6:05pm. We regret any inconvenience this policy causes.

If you have questions before attending that aren't answered on this page, e-mail vpmembership@sf-toastmasters.org.
