Joy says, "I have been a Toastmaster for 17 years. I have visited Australia four times, and have attended Toastmasters meetings there on each of my trips. On my last trip I visited three clubs and racked up three manual speeches. I was also the test speaker for an evaluation contest.

As a result of my Toastmaster contacts and desire to attend Toastmasters clubs, I have been invited into several Toastmasters' homes, sometimes for a meal, once to stay a few nights."

Joy is a member of Simi Valley Toastmasters (Dist. 33), The Supper Club (Dist. 33), and Storytelling & Performing Arts Toastmasters (Dist. 52)
