Al-Anon is for family and friends affected by someone else's drinking or drug use.

Is your fear of speaking in public holding you back from your full potential?
Is speaking stressful for you?
Do you wish you could stop worrying about your next presentation at work or in a class?

You're invited to visit a Los Chismosos Toastmasters club meeting, as our guest!

You will learn-by-doing, in a supportive and positive club setting that meets each Thursday on Zoom. The new "Pathways" program from Toastmasters International is designed to provide you with a safe, step-by-step way to learn public speaking skills.

You are free to select a "Pathways" track that most benefits you and aligns with your needs and interests.

When you join Toastmasters, you can stop worrying about your next presentation and get immediate feedback from experienced speakers. You'll discover a positive and supportive group, willing to help you take your first steps toward speaking with confidence.

You will benefit from Toastmasters by learning to:

--Find an immediate connection with your audience;
--Organize your thoughts logically for clarity;
--Energize your speaking with storytelling;
--Find your voice and your unique style to convey your best ideas.

Founded in 1984, Los Chismosos Toastmasters' membership includes faculty, graduate students, and staff at New Mexico State University as well as people in the business community, retirees, and those new to the area.

Wed., Feb. 12:

The New Mexico State University Cambios lecture series features writer Dr. John Fleck discussing how New Mexicans can negotiate an era of increasing competition for shrinking water resources.

Fleck’s talk, “Less Water: What do we do?” will start at 7 p.m. at the Rio Grande Theatre.

Fleck, a former journalist with the Albuquerque Journal, is writer-in-residence at the University of New Mexico School of Law’s Utton Center and professor of Practice in Water Policy and Governance at the UNM Department of Economics. Fleck is the author of "Water is for Fighting Over and Other Myths about the West" (2016) and co-author of "Science Be Damned: How Ignoring Inconvenient Science Drained the Colorado River" (2019).

Fleck will discuss how communities across the West can not only survive but thrive in a future of competing demands for precious water resources.

This event takes place on the second Saturday of even numbered months.
