Training

We are off to a fabulous start with our training and education efforts.  We’ve held our first District Officer Training and our 4 Big TLIs. Club Officer Trainings are underway. All club officers need to be trained no later than August 31, 2019 in order for club achieve Distinguished Club Goal #9, which is a minimum of four club officers trained during each of the two training periods.

Recognition and Roast

We are in the early planning phases of our Recognition and Roast event that will be held on October 12, 2019.  We will be honoring Toastmasters achievements for the 2018-2019 year, as well as “roasting” our Immediate Past District Director, Marcia Wood.  Updates at www.d26toastmasters.org/hall-of-fame.

Pathways

We have an entire page dedicated to Pathways resources.  Special thanks to our Pathways Team: Susie Overton, Sarah Beasley, Carol Pace, Joe McCarthy, Nancy Winston, Ann Hill, Patricia Saunders, Terry Morrison and Public Relations Manager Keith Horowitz, in all of your diligence in making this happen.  Please visit the page at www.d26toastmasters.org/pathways.

Spring Conference

Our Annual Conference 2020, is scheduled for Friday, May 1st and Saturday, May 2nd.  I am currently seeking a Conference Chair for the event so that we may begin brainstorming ideas now. Since the Conference Chair will be overseeing various teams to make the event successful, this a perfect opportunity for someone who needs to the complete High Performance Leadership (HPL) under the Traditional system/Pathways or the Distinguished Toastmaster Capstone Project under Pathways.  Please contact me directly, at jlsmith.tm[at]nullgmail.com if you are interested.
