Welcome to MarathonMasters

MarathonMasters is a club dedicated to helping its members become better speakers and leaders. We welcome anyone who is interested to drop by any meeting to see what we're all about. Our club meets every Thursday (excluding holidays) at 12:00pm at the St Joseph Hospital at I-435 and State Line in south Kansas City.  The exact meeting room varies, so check the schedule.  These pages are editable to any registered user, so if you're a MarathonMasters member, go ahead and create yourself an account and add some content of your own.  I've had to close off access to non-members due to abuse, but club members are always welcome to post to these pages.  Here are some links to get you started

It's nearing that time of year when we need to start thinking up those funny stories. Every fall we conduct a humorous speech contest, and this year's contest is coming up on August 21. Speeches are to be 5-7 minutes, can be on any topic (but they should be a coherent story rather than a series of one-liners), and will be judged according to TI's guidelines. The winner of this contest will move on to compete at the area level. This is your chance to reach for the stars, gather some notoriety, and basically just have a good time.

For everyone else who isn't competing, we will also need the usual assortment of contest roles, including contest master, judges, timers, and at least one vote counter (did I miss any?). It will be a good time for all, so invite your friends and we'll make an event out of it.

Congratulations to Eldon for taking second place in the Division S International Speech Contest. Although he won't be competing at the Spring Conference, it's still quite an accomplishment, especially considering the difficulty of the competition.
