Hello there.

Thank you so much for showing interest in our club. The Atsugi-Zama toastmasters club, established in 1970, is a club with historical significance in Japan (District 76). We're going to have our 40th anniversary in 2010. We started at U.S. Army Base, Camp Zama, and meet at Sagami Women's University today.

As with other clubs, Atsugi-Zama toastmasters club has a friendly, supportive, and enjoyable atmosphere. Our special feature is that members are remarkably active when it comes to developing their public speaking and leadership skills. Relatively new members learn from experienced members. And experienced members not only reveal advanced techniques in their presentations but also learn from new members' fresh perspectives, for example life, job, etc.

Why would you want to join a Toastmasters club?
Our excellent curriculum and lack of barriers among members are really attractive. You can meet 200,000 friends in 10,000 clubs across the world. You'll notice our remarkable diversity in terms of generation, nationality, gender and professional area. You can find out more on the Toastmasters International website.

Meanwhile, please feel free to knock on the door of our club. Or you can first send us a message at aztmc_contact@googlegroups.com.
Come and enjoy learning with us!

Shigeru Maruyama
President of Atsugi-Zama toastmasters club
