Now is the time to submit your application for the 2023-2023 District Leadership roles. Serving as a Division Director, Area Director, Program Quality, Club Growth or District Director will allow you to take your leadership skills to the next level.

Bring Toastmasters to your workplace or community group. Send your new club leads to our club growth director Ruchin Gupta.
Continue to achieve your education goals, and finish a Pathways level to help yourself and your club achieve distinguished status before June 30.
Finally, this year’s International and Humorous Speech Contest season is kicking off. Clubs hold contests in February; Areas in March; Divisions in April all leading up to the district contests in May. Look out for contest training dates to be published soon.
I challenge you to invite a friend to visit your club; participate in your next club meeting; take on a leadership role in the coming term and build a new club!
Together we will finish the year strong!
