Speakers’ Corner Event

4th November 2007

Riverside Communicators together with London Corinthians hosted an event at the world famous Speakers’ Corner, Hyde Park, during the afternoon of Sunday 4th November 2007. Organised by Kim Horner, President London Corinthians and Dorothea Stuart, Area 29 Governor, it gave our London Contest winners Andrew Klimaytys and Jonathon Palmer an opportunity to practice for the UK and Ireland Table Topics (impromptu speaking) and Humorous Speech Contest finals to be held 9-11 November 2007 in Harrogate. They both performed extremely well in a testing situation and handled the hecklers with great aplomb. We wish them both good fortune

The event was also an opportunity for a number of club members to speak for the first time at Speakers’ Corner. Riverside speakers included Sue Kennedy and Trevor Stokes who gave great performances from the soapbox. Well done to everyone!.
