Make a Difference in Others' Lives

Toastmasters:
I hope you and yours had a lovely holiday season. During this time of year, I can’t help but
reflect on my life, where I’ve been, and where I’d like to go. I am not making resolutions, per se,
but truly reflecting on changes or improvements that I want to make in my life and how I can
make a difference in others’ lives. As the Club Growth Director, my focus is on our district
mission and how I can help build new clubs and support all clubs in achieving excellence. To
that end, I have some events to announce that are geared toward helping clubs grow their
membership and retain their existing members.

YOU'RE
INVITED
