It’s fun, you get to exaggerate, lie and
make-up your own tale. The speeches are
3-5 minutes. (Item #1169TBL) Table Topics

is also a fun contest, and one only needs to
speak for 1-2 minutes. (Item #1169TBL) For
the adventurous club, the Humorous Speech
contest is also available requiring a 5-7 minutes

speech. (Item #1169H)
Speaking is our goal. Confident,
relatable and dynamic audience-
grabbing speeches are our craft. Take

advantage of the Autumn and schedule
one of these for your club—or make up
your own contest. Not only will you find
that your members will be challenged and

inspired to do more, but it will help your
club to get ready for the Spring contests
by practicing how to put on a speech contest.
We’ll have exciting area, division and district

(maybe even regional and international) speech
winners!
Okay, before I rock myself off to an
afternoon’s nap, or ramble down another

memory lane, I’ll end these thoughts for
the month. Oh, by the way. Have you heard
about my perilous exploits in the Amazon in the
1980’s? You’ll have to come to my club’s Tall

Tales Contest to find out!
