Greetings!
We are at 31 days and counting until the 2012-2013 Toastmasters' year comes to a close. What can your club accomplish in 31 days? What can YOU accomplish in 31 days?
I encourage you and your club to do all you can in the next 31 days to make your personal and club goals.
Complete your CC or another speech project manual. Complete a CL, or another project to complete an advanced leader award. Decide to serve as a club officer for the 2013-2014 Toastmaster year.
Submit your club officer list to Toastmasters International!
Have a club open house as a marketing/PR event and show your guests the value of the Toastmasters program.
Contact the members of your club who didn't renew their dues. Find out why, and invite them back!
You and your club can accomplish great things in just 31 days. Why surrender to time? Take action now!
Jackie Bailey, DTM
District 2 Governor
