Why I joined   
Toastmasters:
   
  My three high school aged children participated in a Toastmasters group for a year.  I was so impressed with their public speaking progress that I knew I should join and rid myself of my fear of public speaking.
     
What Toastmasters    
has done for me:
   
  I am looking forward to my personal growth -- I hope in 6 months to be rid of all my ums.
     
Hobbies:   
  Reading, photography, Tae Kwon Do, and cooking
     
Favorite quote:   
  "A place for everything and everything in its place."  -- Benjamin Franklin
