I've also posted an article on my blog on what the organization has done for me, about what I gained from my participation in the spring 2004 speech contest season. It's called "Yes, Talking Fish."

Great link to your post Daniel.

How is it for absolute rookies who are flung in at the deep end. Do people freeze on the spot? I really want to get involved in one of these clubs as the benefits, socially, for business and PD seem to good to miss out on.
