Crystal City Evening Toastmasters fosters a fun, nurturing, and relaxed environment for learning and growth. Our standard meetings consist of personal introductions, prepared speeches, impromptu speaking (known as Table Topics), and speech evaluations given by experienced members of our club. You will have plenty of opportunities to speak at our meetings but you are NOT obligated to do so.

Occasionally, we stray from our standard meetings and have “theme” meetings. During our theme meetings, members dress up, sometimes center their speech topics around the theme, etc.

You’ll also not want to miss our Toast To You! meeting nights. Toast To You! is our quarterly recognition program when we roll out the red carpet for our members to honor the successes they have achieved in the last quarter. It’s a special night, with refreshments, and also a great night for visitors to visit our club.

When we Meet

We meet the first, third, and fifth Tuesday of each month at the Aurora Hills Community Center attached to the Aurora Hills Public Library near the Pentagon City Mall.  The address is 735 18th St. S., Arlington, VA 22202-2738.  There is plenty of parking in the library parking lot, the surrounding sports fields, or on the nearby streets.  The meeting location is one block from the Pentagon City Mall metro stop. Doors open at 7:00 p.m. so guests and members can mingle and get to know each other. Meetings begin promptly at 7:15 p.m. and generally run until about 8:30 p.m.

Interested in Stopping By?

We’d love to have you!  There is no cost to visit any of our meetings as a guest.  Feel free to contact us for more information about our next meeting.
