Seven new club members in 8 weeks – 3 times in 3 years! 
The true story -- how Club 52 Toastmasters used Speechcraft to save their club.

Changes in their host company caused devastating losses in membership that forced Club 52  to “reinvent” itself several times over the past few years.  In forty-five minutes, three Toastmasters who lead Club 52’s dramatic turnaround share how they used the Toastmaster International "Speechcraft" to bring their club back to life.  Judy Sutor, Craig Zajac, and Yann Dupre will inspire you as “up close and personal” they tell you what worked for them and what didn’t. 

Whether your club has seven members or forty, gaining and retaining members is vital to the health and delivery of the TM program – Speechcraft works.   Members: Speechcraft is a compact yet powerful program you can use to bring TM speaking and leadership training to your workplace, school, trade organization, or spiritual fellowship.  You can make a difference, whoever and wherever you are.

Attend this presentation:  A Practical Guide to Speechcraft for Building Membership. Saturday afternoon, November 10, 2001 at the District 3 Fall Conference.

Toastmasters International President Alfred Herzing to visit District 3 Toastmasters Glenn Pike, DTM

Alfred Herzing, DTM

The Conference will proclaim President Herzing's world wide Toastmasters theme "Take Control of Your Destiny, a theme also adopted by District 3 for its 2001-2002 year.

"Take Control of Your Destiny" is Herzing's encouragement to Toastmasters to take control of their progress towards achieving their personal Toastmaster growth goals.

To provide a plan which each Toastmaster can put in place for themselves, Herzing has initiated a Toastmasters "Goal Card."

"Too many Toastmasters leave before earning their CTM," states Herzing. "We enroll approximately 60,000 new members a year yet only award approximately 16,000 CTMs. One in five members completes the basic manual.

"That's why we need to encourage each member to get his or her goals in focus, and put them in writing," he said. The Goal Card offers that opportunity.

The primary objective of TI's programs, according to Herzing, is results. "We are focusing on the 'results' rather than the 'activity' and to do the things that will build a club --- and build it now." 

During his visit Herzing will also make Corporate visits at companies which have expressed an interest in organizing a Toastmaster club. Herzing's Presidential District 3 Conference visit will be the third by a Toastmasters International president in the last 20 years.

Past President Robert Barnhill, DTM, and his wife, Jana, visited for the Fall 1996 Conference and Past President Tom Richardson in 1988. In 1980, District 3 was blessed to have one of its own members, Bill Hamilton, DTM, Park Central, serve as a Toastmasters International President.

International Presidents visit as many districts as they can on a rotating basis. It takes a while to visit all 77 and is spread over several Presidential terms.
