We expect that each person will be able to collect and process most of your kit during this class. You will learn this fundamental bushcraft skill by doing!

Two Toastmasters meetings in one! This month, Lofty Speakers teams up Voces Latinas for a joint meeting! **Does the idea of public speaking freak you out? Join the club!** The best way to overcome the fear of public speaking is practice, practice, practice. And we have a more interesting way for you to do that…unless you really enjoy giving speeches to your mirror. If you’re ready to show the world - your coworkers, friends and family - the charismatic, intelligent and articulate part of you - or if you simply want to make a good impression at your next job interview, join the club. **Lofty & Voces are part of a network of more than 16,600 Toastmaster clubs in 143 countries around the world.** Our unique club is made up of a small group of creative professionals who have pledged to work on their fear of public speaking together twice a month. (For a grand total of 4 hours per month!) Public speaking is scary - but stick with us and you’ll not only learn how to master the art of communication… you’ll also learn to love it - and meet some great people along the way.
