Brief Club History.
The first Toastmasters demonstration meeting was held in The Hibernian Hotel on October 1'ST 1992.
In March '93 "Speakeasy" is chosen as the Club's name and in April the Club is officially created.
The first club President was Joe O'Connor and Pat Sexton was elected Area Governor.
In October, Kieran Buckley won the Area Final of the Table Topics and Matt Lawlee won both the Area and Division finals of the Humorous Speech contest.
Kieran and Matt were the first of a long line of Club Members to distinguish themselves and their Club at these prestigious Toastmaster competitions.
In its 10 year history the Club has won many Achievement Awards within Toastmasters International and also has produced two books of speeches.
The first in October 1994 titled, "Unaccustomed as I am" which was launched by Brian Crowley MEP and the second in November 1999, titled, "Sin Scéil Eile" (That's Another Story), launched by Robert Walsh of County Sound (103FM)
Both these books contain a collection of speeches given by club members at club meetings.
In May 1994, the first of the Club's Mystery Tours took place, which is the annual outing of club's members.
