How to visit
We meet on the 1st, 3rd, and 4th Tuesdays of the month. We pay for the use of the venue by buying dinner, and we therefore require our guests to do the same, plus a small help with the rent.
If you plan to visit us, please complete the RSVP using our Meetup.

Questions & Answers
Q: Do I need to speak at a club meeting?
A: No. As a guest, you are not obliged to speak when visiting a club. All roles and speaking slots are filled by members. You may, if the opportunity arises, volunteer to participate in the Table Topics. You may also be asked to say a few words about your impressions of the club programme.
Q: Is there a leader or instructor?
A: There is no instructor in a Toastmasters meeting. The club has elected club officers present and a Toastmaster who facilitates the meeting. By joining the club, you receive the competent communicator manual, which contains ten projects to learn and improve your public speaking skills. If you wish, you can also have an experienced member as mentor for the first three speech projects.
Q: Do I have to pay for the dinner?
A: Yes, dinner costs between 30 and 40.- CHF (à la carte). Keep in mind though that you do not only get a delicious dinner, but also one of the most beautiful locations for a Toastmasters meeting, the gorgeous guild hall. Drinks are also not included.
Q: How many people will be there?
A: Normally we have between 20-35 members and guests attending our meetings. The RSVP people in Meetup are usually the guests.
