One of the duties as a member of the trio has been to interview International Officer Candidates for the upcoming Annual Business Meeting (ABM) in Philadelphia. We’ll be voting for International President-Elect, First Vice President, Second Vice President, and International Directors for Regions 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, and 13. I’ve got to meet a lot of great Toastmasters across the world. Many of them have done wonderful things and have great ideas on how to work as a team and make Toastmasters better and try to reach out to new markets and new members. I’m looking forward to going to Philly and meet these people in person.

Congratulations to Selkirk TM Club who recently signed up a new member!

Selkirk is a Sunshine club. One of the goals to succeed as a Sunshine Club is to sign up two new members by September 30th. They are half way there on the hardest part!

I went to Rogers TV website yesterday (July 3rd) to see if District 64 TV is on the schedule, just on a whim. I was shocked to see it was running the same day! So I’m taking this chance to advertise the version we post on Youtube for those who do not have Rogers TV. Take a watch! Like, Comment, Subscribe! And share with your friends so we can get the information out there.

One of the big things about being Club Growth Director is monitoring the dashboard for changes.

As of July 3rd, we have 62 clubs in good standing. Got word that WIS got some of their payments in and are working on the others, so they will be back in good standing soon! I’m glad they are still around 🙂

Just a quick update today to welcome Chevon whom has joined Virtual Toastmasters and is the first new Toastmaster this TM year! What I might do is look at incentives for getting members to join (on top of the existing Toastmaster-sponsored incentives)

Don’t forget if you do get a new member — Find out who brought them so that person can get the credit as a sponsor. Sponsor five members and you get a pin from TI!
