Our Division Director, Sumukha Jois, invites you to a day filled with memorable moments, powerful speeches, and that unmistakable Toastmasters atmosphere — the one where nerves turn into applause and speeches turn into stories.
And speaking of stories:
Two brave members of BASF Toastmasters will step onto the stage to represent both their Club and their Area. Let’s cheer them on as they compete for a chance to shine at the District Conference 2026 in Essen.
But before the spotlight shines, we need a strong support team. We’re looking for volunteers for roles such as:
- Judges
- Ballot Counters
- Timers
- Contest Officials
If you’ve ever wanted to wear a stopwatch with authority or hold a ballot like it’s a golden ticket — this is your moment. Join us for a day full of great speeches, warm community spirit, and maybe even a pretzel or two. Mannheim is ready. Are you?
