A Brief History of WPH TM

West Pennant Hills Toastmasters was officially chartered on 22 March 1996, but the formation of the club dates back to 1994, when John Beer, a local resident, was approached by the Colbarra Community Centre about forming a new club. John, a community-minded man, belonged to the Oakhill Community Toastmasters Club.
