Ephrata Toastmasters New Members

Ephrata Cloister Toastmasters welcomed new members Amber Eck and Sravan Balasani at a recent club meeting. Both Amber and Sravan agree that they “joined the club to hone their communication and leadership skills.”

Each Toastmaster’s journey begins with a single speech. As members attend club meetings, they give speeches, gain feedback and guide others to achieve their goals in a friendly, selfpaced atmosphere.

Toastmasters International is a non-profit educational organization. The Ephrata club is one of a worldwide network of more than 14,700 Toastmasters clubs in 144 countries. Since 1924, Toastmasters has helped people from diverse back­ grounds become more confident speakers, communicators and leaders.

The Ephrata Cloisters Toastmasters Club meets every second and fourth Monday at 6:30 p.m. at the Dove Westgate Church in Ephrata and virtually online. Interested individuals are encouraged to join the club for a complimentary introductory meeting. For more information, please call 717­715­9234.

Shown in the photo, from left to right, are Joanne Borolla (Club President), Amber Eck and Sravan Balasani.
