trict 7 Charters 9th New Club
Congratulations to Flying Toasters, the new corporate club chartered at Airbnb located in downtown
Portland. Club mentor Nathan Cook has been working with them for several months.
January Is Missing Member Month
The New Year is just around the corner. Many people are compelled to make
New Year’s resolutions. Popular ones are weight loss, exercise programs and a variety of self-improvement
pledges.
In District 7 January will be Missing Member Month. It is a time to reach out to past members, let them
know they are missed and invite them back to your club. Start planning now.
Check your Free Toast Host club website list for Send out invitations or pick up the phone
names and contact information Welcome them back with open arms
Choose a date in January for a special meeting
Pick a theme
This can be an easy way to bump up your Membership. If time restraints and other obligations are now
clear, your encouragement to return will be timely and warmly accepted.
Testers Needed for New Website Coming to District 7
We are looking for website testers. Testers preview a new website. They play with it,
poke around in it and try to break it. The purpose is to work
out all the bugs before the site goes live. If you have an hour
or more to help us out please register below. Testing will
begin in the next few weeks.
Thank you for helping bring a new and
improved website to District 7.
The Gift of Toastmasters Can Change a Life
Ryan Avery, 2012 World Champion of Public Speaking, often talks about his dad gifting
him a six-month membership in a Toastmasters club to help him improve his
communications with potential employers. Ryan parlayed that gift into a position in
marketing at Special Olympics and then went on to win the World Championship of
Public Speaking at the age of 25. Today he is an entrepreneur, author, and world
traveler—the master of his own destiny. Thirty-six dollars changed his life. Who
do you cherish? Who’s life can you change simply by giving them the
gift of a Toastmasters membership this holiday season? It’s never
to late. Do it now. Today.
