And that’s not all…
Coronavirus has also impacted our ability to hold Oratorical contests. We have provided guidance on how to hold an online Oratorical contest. In addition, President Adrian Elcock announced this week that we would not be holding the Optimist Oratorical World Championship in St. Louis, and are working to produce a fully online competition. 
Our April 20 webinar will be devoted to training to hold an online Oratorical contest via Zoom. If you’re unfamiliar with the process, then the March 30 webinar will be a good introduction. Both events will offer participants the opportunity to ask questions.
