Side Benefit of Toastmasters "I won a prize today at the Honolulu Realtor Broker's open because I got up and told a joke - the only joke I know - The Mozart joke I told at Toastmasters a month or so ago when I was Jokemaster." JoAnn Yee
Introducing our newest members  Paul Charles Makaeha Lawelawe Day
City & County of Honolulu, Dept. of Environmental Services, Environmental Quality, Regulatory Control Branch
Position - Wastewater Service Investigator
I joined Toastmasters for self-improvement in the area of public speaking. I look foward to building relationships with fellow club members as we develop important speaking and management skills in a friendly environment. My interest include learning Hawaii Slack Key Guitar.
 Bill Sakaguchi, AIA
Vice President - Development
Avalon Development Company, LLC
Interests: My wife Genie, and I are the parents of two sons, and gramma and grampa to a mo'opuna kane, Tate Keolu who is 2 years and 4 months old. Besides being grandparents, we like to have breakfast at the Kapiolani Community College Farmers’ Market on Saturday mornings, and then walk-it-off with a brisk walk around Diamond Head or Kapiolani Park. I also sing Bass with the Honolulu Symphony Chorus, and dance with Halau Hula O Maiki.
"My public speaking skills need improvement. My first meeting with the City & County of Honolulu Toastmasters was a revelation. I was impressed by the ease with which the presenters spoke, and by the generosity of the audience - by their attentiveness, gracious comments, and words of praise and encouragement. I learned that this group provides a safe environment to learn and build the confidence I need to improve my public speaking skills. Thanks for welcoming me as a new member."

Interests: Singing, reading, walking, exercising, dancing, volunteering with the elderly
"Although I have wanted to join for many years, I never found time to do it. My employer suggested I join this year and, therefore, I made a point to do so. The reason I want to join is, hopefully, to learn to organize my thoughts when speaking. Working on speeches and participating in the tabletopics, I believe, will assist me in that endeavor.
Your club is filled with warm, encouraging, interesting individuals. The speeches I've heard at the two meetings and the speech contest I attended have been extremely well done, interesting and very informative. I'm delighted to be a member and look forward to participating in all areas."
 Manny Neves
Assistant Fire Chief

"I felt that my communication skills could use some improvement which would help me be more effective as an executive of a large City department. The club readily embraces its new members and you feel very comfortable and safe in your efforts to improve."
