The Beacon Club is proud to be designated a "Select Distinguished" Toastmasters Club by Toastmasters International. Beacon Club #2421 provides a collegial and friendly environment for developing public speaking, listening and leadership skills.  We train and mentor each other so that all members, from the novice to the seasoned professional, have opportunities to grow as communicators and leaders.  We do this by following the proven Toastmasters methods, and we have fun working on our skills together.

The Beacon Club is an open club such that all interested persons are welcome to attend. Please feel free to come visit and see how this club may serve your interests and needs.
