Congratulations District 33 – Distinguished 2 years in a row.  Let us continue that momentum for 2010-2011 by earning the “Excellence in Leadership” Award for achieving Distinguished District three years in a row.  Each member shares in the honor of this award for it is only with the efforts and commitment of the members that the District can achieve Distinguished.

                        The goal for 2010-2011: Distinguished across the board.
Members reaching their goals make every club Distinguished which leads to Distinguished Areas, Distinguished Divisions and Distinguished District. Being a Distinguished Club means your club is delivering the Toastmaster program. Members achieving speaking goals, leadership goals, getting new members, and maintaining their responsibilities are critical to a club’s success.  All ten Distinguished Club Program goals are a measure of a club’s commitment to the Toastmasters educational and leadership program. I have read that 4 dedicated club officers can make a distinguished club, but it is a benefit to all members to participate with a group effort. Not to mention, it is easier and more fun!  Your club has the mission to reach Distinguished Club status. When your club is distinguished – celebrate, have a party.  Every member deserves to be a member of a distinguished club!

I joined Toastmasters to be able to communicate in a group of three or more.  Now, I am the District 33 Governor.  In Toastmasters, everything is possible.  Over my thirteen years as a Toastmaster, I have had many triumphs, but this will be my best Toastmaster year ever.  Please join me and make this your best Toastmaster year.  “Inspire and Empower” others to reach their full potential as you. “Inspire and Empower” yourself to success. It’s what we do in Toastmasters – “Inspire and Empower”.
