Toastmaster Terry Babb, ACS, of Palm Harbor won first place in the Toastmaster District 47 Humorous Speech contest held Saturday, November 5, 2011 in West Palm Beach, Florida. Babb, 68, competed against eight other Toastmasters representing speakers from more than 230 clubs located in 19 South Florida counties and the Islands of the Bahamas. Babb's speech, "In Toastmasters, Anything Can Happen," was a spoof of his own experiences in learning public speaking. Toastmasters International is a nonprofit educational organization that teaches public speaking and leadership skills through a worldwide network of clubs. A panel of 14 Toastmasters judges evaluated the finalists on a range of criteria, including speech content, organization, voice quality and gestures. The speeches could cover any topic and had to last between five and seven minutes.
