What our Club Offers
To become a Speaker, you need to be around good communicators who are willing to give you constructive feedback. You also need to watch and listen to other speakers who know the power of the “Spoken Word.”
What to Expect
Pleasant Environment
Prairie Club Lounge has vaulted ceilings that give the meeting room interesting acoustical properties. We don’t sit around a table, but rather sit at small tables scattered about or on couches and large chairs in the room. A large window looks out onto the pool patio with a waterfall which lends to the relaxed environment.
Structured Meetings
Always experience Prepared Speeches given by one or more members. Always be given an opportunity to speak extemporaneously on a variety of subjects. Always be given an opportunity to be the Master of Ceremonies to gain confidence. Always be given an opportunity to evaluate other speakers.
Friendly People
We are building a supportive group that recognizes that people are different. We welcome different perspectives and goals that each speaker will bring to the club. This is all part learning to communicate in a fair, unbiased way to a variety of people.
Motivated People
The people who join and stay in the club are motivated to meet their goals. We encourage the use of a notebook to log your speeches and the evaluations provided to you by other members. This allows you to monitor your progress.
