The Strong Towns Speech Club meets every Wednesday from 6:55–8:30 p.m. CT on Zoom, and we welcome new guests at every meeting. You can attend as many times as you’d like—always free of charge.
Think of this group environment as a learning laboratory: a place with no professional or personal pressure to deliver the “perfect” speech. Instead, you’ll have the chance to practice, refine, and receive thoughtful feedback on both your content and delivery from other members.
Whether you want to get comfortable speaking at city council meetings, presenting ideas in your neighborhood, or simply strengthening your voice as an advocate, this is a supportive space to experiment, learn, and grow.

Each meeting follows a simple structure designed to help you practice core communication skills: impromptu speaking, prepared speeches, and giving or receiving constructive feedback. In the impromptu portion, members answer questions on the spot—building confidence for interviews, council meetings, and unexpected conversations. Prepared speeches offer the chance to refine a 5–7 minute talk, while evaluations provide supportive, actionable feedback you can immediately apply.
