Presentation of the Data Projector

Congratulations Orangeville Toastmasters on winning the grand prize of the Data Projector for our April and May membership and education awards drive.  The presentation of the prize to the President, Anne Bradley, took place at our District BBQ for outgoing and incoming District Officers on Sunday June 12th.  Present also was Tina Gaisin from Tech Data Toastmasters as Tech Data Canada Corporation donated the prize to the district.

An Award of Appreciation was presented by me on behalf of the district to the President, Rick Reid, of Tech Data Corporation at their all employee meeting on June 2, 2011 to thank them, once again, for their ongoing support of the Toastmasters program within their company and the district.

It was great to see that over 60 clubs participated in this drive and that 173 new members joined our clubs bringing lots of new growth and excitement.  A total of 115 educational awards were earned during that period and that is a lot of expertise that clubs have to share with these new members.

Congratulations to all for a job well done! 

Now... let's move on to the June drive ...the Weekend Getaway... to bring home the membership goals to make District 86 Distinguished.  We have some clubs to bring to charter as well.  Let's all work together to achieve this success.  With District 86 being Distinguished 3 years in a row, since inception, that will mean we'll earn the Excellence in Leadership Award from Toastmasters International. 

Let's Do It!

Best of luck to all....
