Fellow Teamates
Hello... how are you doing?
WOW! Time flies and we have finished a quarter of the term!
Month of September should have been a rather busy month with us visiting Area and Division Contests. I could still remember the days I was keen to participate in contests...truly a thrilling feeling. Its not about winning that matters BUT its about participating wholeheartedly and sharing valuable messages to a much focussed crowd. As the contests are almost over, its about time for you to consider signing up for the KL Semi Annual Convention if you have not done so. It will certainly be exciting to see 10 finalists on stage at the same time competing to be the District Champion!! Hurry!!!! Sign up before the price skyrockets up.
Semi-Annual Dues had been another area of focus as we need to ensure every member renews their dues. It is our ultimate responsibility to share the benefits, inspire the members while allaying any adverse concerns, if there are, in getting 100% renewals done on time. This is the responsibility of everyone from the member right up to the DG. Practice the humbleness in simplicity to reach out to the members! The deadline may have passed, but you can still renew your dues to continue enjoying the benefits of Toastmasters. Do so now and if you need assistance, pls contact the Area Governors, Division GOvernors or Senior D51 Officers.
I am sure many of you would have witness the GREAT District Directory 2010/11 that had been compiled and coordinated under the leadership of our District Secretary, Parames. The Secretariat Team certainly deserves a great applaud from all of us for coining together the pieces of data and additional info, which now becomes very handy to us. As we always say, ggod things come in limited quantities, we are only able to supply 3 copis to each Club which we expect to be shared among the Excos / Members strictly for Toastmasters purposes only. Please respect and observe the data in strictest confidentiality.
The Amazing Benefits of Toastmasters had since made entry into some new organisations where we will soon be witnessing the birth of a few new Clubs in October - namely Taylor's University TMC (Div B), Monash Universtiy TMC (Div G), USM Students TMC (Div N) and Gold Coin Larkin TMC (Div A). Join me in welcoming them onboard our family while we continue to strive to expand the network of clubs by seizing every opportunity/lead available. Tap on the support of LGM and the district team to provide instant information to the interested parties leading to a demo meeting. This would be the least we could do in bringing the magical transformation to other's lives. Alternatively, you can provide us the leads for follow-up while we shall reciprocate your efforts by getting you involved in the whole process of chartering and subsequent recognition. GO GO GO....DO OUR BEST to BRING TOASTMASTERS to every corner of the community....
Look out for the various campaigns that are being launched in keeping all our focus on track to ACHIEVE GREATNESS TOGETHER!
Join us at the KL Semi Annual Convention for a UNIQUE District 51 Celebration!
Humbly yours,
