We’re sorry, but we can’t help it. Whenever we hear “Toastmaster”, we picture Arnold Schwarzenegger as Conan the Barbarian, his sword in the air, standing on a big pile of toast. “I am TOASTMASTER!”

While we do know that Toastmasters International is dedicated to “fostering self-confidence and personal growth through a educational and supportive environment”, we’re pretty sure the end product doesn’t involve a oaths of courage bellowed in a loin cloth. Unfortunately.

Still, if you’re curious whether we’re wrong, check out the open house the Fremont Toastmasters are hosting this Wednesday, 4/29 from 7:30 – 8:30 AM in the Fremont Baptist Church (717 N 36th Street):

• What we offer: a supportive environment where you can improve your speaking skills
• What we don’t offer: toasted bread and jam or the sound of clinking glasses
