Cate Arnold
The Path to
Pakistan
James Wantz, DTM
Where will your Toastmasters journey take you?
How about Pakistan? That is where Cate Arnold, Club
Growth Director for District 7, found herself at the
end of 2018.
The path to Pakistan was a series of seemingly
unconnected choices and coincidences linked in a way
that she could not have imagined as little as one year
ago. It began with Pathways. Yep, the new educational
program was instrumental in getting Cate Arnold to
another country halfway around the globe. No, this
isn’t a commercial for Pathways, but it is an example of
Pathways (and Toastmasters) ability to connect people
around the world.
Two years ago, in 2017, Cate answered the call
to become a Pathways Guide. She wanted to learn
more about Pathways and share with clubs around
the District. In her role as a Pathways Guide, she was
instrumental in orchestrating the District 7 Pathways
Triple A Award (a once in a lifetime award that was
offered to members in the first year of the Pathways
rollout).
