Hello District 7 and Happy Spring!

Fred Bergeron; DTM
District 7 Public Relations Manager

I hope you enjoyed my interview with our Immediate Past District Director, Lorri Andersen, in our January
edition of Voices!

I hope you’ve seen the PRM (Public Relation Managers) Forum in August 2023 that I started. It’s been a
big hit from the beginning, and as of this writing, there are currently 10 episodes on our District YouTube
Channel. I’m seeking presenters who have a passion for PR, that are available at 7 PM PST every second and
fourth Tuesday of the month. I have a request, if you are not presenting and you register to attend as a par-
ticipant, please do your absolute best to show up. My last few sessions have had five or more participants
register, but only the presenter and I showed up. I know life happens and gets in the way sometimes, but it
just takes a few seconds to send yourself a reminder or mark it on your calendar. Sessions will be recorded
and posted on various platforms, so if you’d like to present and help us promote the District, please sign
the video/photo release form, located at: HERE

I have some good news to share. I was able to set the District up with our very own FREE Canva account.
It was a little bit of a challenge at first, but with a few e-mails and assistance on Zoom from Toastmasters
Headquarters, I was able to get it done. Was your Club one of the Club Website Contest winners last year?
Your reward from the District is FREE ads for your Club that I will create. Congratulations to all those clubs
who won and participated!

See you at the conference!
