This will be a year of opportunities for personal growth, fun and fellowship.
As your LGM my responsibilities lie in growing new clubs and attracting and retaining
members. To help accomplish these tasks I have a great team in place. You will be
meeting them throughout the year.
Currently our main focus is the World’s Largest Toastmasters Meeting. A cast of
enthusiastic speakers has been assembled. There are still many opportunities to help
make District 7 history. We need you to volunteer at the event, bring your family and friends to be part
of the audience and spread the word. To participate email: lgm@d7toastmasters.org
On October 22nd Toastmasters International will be 90 years old and we are celebrating from every
corner of District 7. A video featuring our clubs highlighting Toastmasters will be created and edited by
Pamela Chipman, Fortunate 500. See page 8 if your club would like to participate in this celebratory
video that is sure to go viral.
To spur growth a number of incentives have been put into place. Check them out and help District 7
grow. This will be a year to remember.
