ALTERNATE PARKING:

Stamford Town Center - Tresser Blvd. If you don't mind walking a few extra minutes, you can park in the garage of the mall, it will cost you $0.50 for two hours. Or if you park outside in front of Filene's, at the intersection of Tresser and Greyrock, parking will be FREE (assuming you can get a spot!). Either way, walk over to the Equity Building and enter through the garage. The main entrance is locked around 6 PM.


ONCE YOU'RE IN THE BUILDING . . .

If you enter through entrance across from the Marriott the entrance to the building is a few feet beyond the garage attendant to the left. Otherwise, the door to Stamford Plaza is located at the north end of the garage. If the door is locked (which occasionally happens after 6:30 PM), press the button for the intercom on the left. Tell them you are there for the Toastmasters meeting, and they should let you right in. Once inside the building, take the elevator to the second floor, exit the elevator to the right and you'll see double doors on your left with the label "Community Room".

If prefer not to take the elevator, when you first walk in from the first floor of the garage, bear to your left and walk up the stairs to the second floor. The "Community Room" will be straight ahead and to the right, between the top of the stairs and the elevators.

This is the room where the club meets from 7 PM to 9 PM. People generally arrive between 6:40 and 7:00 to help setup the room for the meeting. Setting up the room is key to starting our meetings on time, and perhaps more importantly ending on time!

Usually, there is a sign posted on the door indicating Toastmasters. If you should arrive after 7:00, please be as quiet as possible upon entering so as not to disturb the speakers.

Our Quarterly Schedule page will always have current meeting date information. Are you curious how our meetings are run now that you know how to get to them? Check our Meeting Info page for all the answers.
