…Then M&M Fast Track is the
Toastmasters Club for YOU!
M&M Fast Track is a
Toastmasters Club based in Madison, WI.
We meet on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each
month at 6:30 pm on the East Side of Madison – typically at the Pinney or
Hawthorne Library (for more details on location of our upcoming meetings,
please visit the Club Meetings tab on the left).
M&M Fast Track was
created in June of 1995. Many
people ask about our name, M&M Fast Track. Well, the first “M” is for Madison and the second “M” is for
Mequon. When our club was first
started, the two co-founders were from Madison and Mequon and included
their “roots” in the name of our club.
The term “Fast Track” refers to the option that we give our members
to quickly progress through the 10 speeches in their first
Toastmaster manual required to receive their Certified Toastmaster award
(CTM).

Testimonials
M&M Fast Track has
helped a number of our members break free of their public speaking
fears. Here are a few testimonials
from our members:
“Most of my working career has
been spent in management. About two years ago after losing a
management position I was faced with a new challenge - to find the
confidence level I once had and believe in myself again. I landed a
few interviews after pouring everything I had into my resume, written
requirements of the positions and cover letters. I failed
miserable and remember secretly hoping I would never see the people again
that I had faced in those interviews. I found that failure is a
good thing, it forces us into making decisions that include realizing that
we need others in our lives in order to grow and succeed. I also
joined Toastmasters as I knew I needed to be stretched. I made a
commitment to my Toastmasters club, to be there and to finish my CTM.
Oh, and did I mention that I have a new job! Toastmasters has
been good for me.”
– Jeanette Edwards
“I recently gave a
presentation with one of my coworkers at the Garden Expo, something I never
would of dreamed of doing before I started at Toastmasters”

Rebecca Strang
“About two years ago I had to
give a presentation at a seminar on a subject that I was uncomfortable with
– and unprepared for. My speaking
confidence was ruined. Toastmasters
has helped to rebuild my confidence and I am comfortable in my speaking
abilities.”
