Pablo Castillo sings the National Anthem

Mild mannered Orange County program analyst Pablo Castillo belts out the National Anthem at a Los Angeles Galaxy professional soccer game for 22,000 fans at the Home Depot Center in Carson, Calif.

Castillo joined Toastmasters in August 2008 to gain confidence when he speaks to a group of people in a business setting and when he sings.

During club meetings he enjoys listening to constructive criticism - for himself or others - like the importance of eye contact, monotone voice recognition and awareness of body language. Every tip can be applied to personal and professional goals.

“While I was singing, I could hear my club members saying, ‘Stand straight, smile, be confident, hands to your side.’ Thank you Toastmasters!”

Castillo is a worship leader at Templo Calvario in Santa Ana, which is the largest bilingual Hispanic Church in the United States. He is now working on his first solo album with a Grammy nominated producer.

Luby Hausmann sings at the Nixon Library

Our own Luby Hausmann was featured in the Yorba Linda Star newspaper while performing in a sponsored sing-a-long of Handel's "Messiah" at the Nixon Presidential Library and Museum, which was sponsored by the Yorba Linda Arts Alliance.

The event featured selections from the "Messiah," not the entire work, with each performance lasting about 75 minutes. About 300 people attended the event, according to a museum tally.
