PLEASE NOTE: Members-only Meeting Wednesday February 8th!!!!

Because of a promotional video film being produced on the night of the 8th, THE REGULAR MEETING WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 8TH WILL BE MEMBERS ONLY ... and not open to guests.

Apologies, potential guests. The additional room crowding due to the cameras, and the nature of the promotional material, make the meeting unsuitable for our usual open-to-guests format.

San Francisco Toastmasters Night Out!

Members, who's ready for a party? Let's all get together Friday, February 10th at the Casanova Lounge, Valencia & 16th St. in the Mission, starting at 7pm. We hope to see you there!

SAN FRANCISCO TOASTMASTERS WINS 2011 GOLDEN QUILL AWARD!

The Golden Quill is a prestigious District-level award presented to the one club (out of 231 District clubs) with the best newsletter. The award was presented at the District 4 Conference and Contest in front of a packed room. We received a gift filled with publicity goodies, as well as the framed certificate. Huge congratulations are in order for our members on the publicity committee, Laure Williams and Cindy Yu, for designing and maintaining our club newsletter. Check out the most recent copy of our SFTM Newsletter or access previous month's newsletters.

GUESTS: you are welcome to attend our meeting! Please read the following.

* MEMBERS AND GUESTS:  please 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 GUESTS: We're sorry, but guests cannot be admitted late (after 6:05pm).
We ask members and guests to arrive by 5:45p, so our meeting can begin promptly at 6pm. San Francisco Toastmasters enjoys a large number of guest visits each meeting, and 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.

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