District 22 Monthly Bulletin
You Make The Difference
by Diana Kovac, District Governor   District 22 - 2006-2007
This was the District 22 theme for 2006-2007 and it is so true. When you joined Toastmasters, one of the finest organizations in the world in the field of training communication and leadership skills, you made a difference in your own life. You are learning and improving skills that are of utmost importance in your professional, public and personal life.

Every role you perform in a meeting and every leadership office you hold not only helps you improve your skills but helps the other members build and improve their skills, confidence and self-esteem. It is members helping one another. What a wonderful win-win situation.

By your participation, you have made the difference in your club, your fellow members' Toastmasters experience, and your own life as well. How far have you come this year? What goals have you reached and what goals are you continuing to reach and work toward? Don't ever stop growing and reaching for self-improvement.

We have two weeks left in this Toastmasters year. That's right, Two Weeks!! As you'll read in this bulletin there are still opportunities and goals for you to reach for this year.

Go for the High Five and share with others what you have gained and learned from Toastmasters and how it's improved your life. Most of you will have at least one more meeting this year, make it a Grand and Exciting event, one that will have guests asking YOU for an application. So don't wait, share all the benefits of Toastmasters with others and You Will Make The Difference!
