Our Presenters from West Shore Toastmasters Club 227
Ellen Demaree, ACS/CL - Key Presenter
Ellen Demaree has been with West Shore Toastmasters since 1993. She has served her Club in multiple leadership roles over the years. One of Ellen’s greatest pleasures as a Toastmaster has been watching new members grow from being too shy to speak a few words, to vocally sharing their thoughts and ideas with confidence. Because of their participation in Toastmasters’ time tested educational program, members have increased job prospects, enjoyed community involvement, and fulfilled various personal goals, all within her Club’s warm and supportive atmosphere.

Yvonne Troy, CC - Key Presenter
Yvonne Troy came to Toastmasters in 2008, terrified of public speaking. She says that she was so nervous giving her first speech, that she almost got sick. In her own words, “my club was very helpful and encouraged me. I became less terrified with every speech I gave.” Yvonne has given 10 speeches and recently earned Toastmasters’ Competent Communicator educational designation. She is much more comfortable with public speaking today, and is looking forward to sharing the program with presentation participants.
