Fellow Toastmasters in District 67,
Welcome to your district conference. This is a Golden opportunity to meet and greet fellow
Toastmasters throughout the district, to develop new friendships and renew existing relationships. Take this opportunity to attend educational sessions to learn new ways to strengthen your club and to further your personal and professional skill development in communication and leadership. Celebrate member and club achievements with fellow Toastmasters in your district and plan for the future.
Cheer on the speech competitors! Enjoy your district’s competitive events. The international speech competition culminates in the World Championship of Public Speaking at the Toastmasters International Convention in Denver, Colorado in August 2019. Will your contestant take the world stage?
At your conference you will elect future district leaders. What are your district’s long-term goals and who are the best candidates to lead your district into the future? Interview the candidates, ask them how they will lead, and select wisely. Then support them as they lead your district. Consider your future in Toastmasters. What are your goals going forward? Use the conference experience to help you identify your next steps in communication and leadership. Look for Golden nuggets of learning throughout the conference, and when you return to your club, share your experiences with members who could not attend. When they hear about your experiences, they will feel like they were a part of it, and encourage them to attend next year. Relish the complete conference experience as you continue your Golden Toastmaster journey!
致各位D67區的會員們，
歡迎來到年度大會，在這個千載難逢的好機會，各位可以與D67區會員們相遇相識，既能認識新朋友，又能更新與老朋友的情誼。
把握這個機會參與教育訓練，學習強化分會的新方法，並提升自己在溝通與領導方面的個人與專業能力。同時，與D67區的會員們一同歡慶分會與會員的成就，並一起展望未來。享受D67區的賽事，為參賽者喝采吧！英語國際演講比賽的高潮，將會是2019年8月於美國科羅拉多州丹佛市舉辦的世界大會，你們的參賽者是否會站上世界舞台呢？
各位將在年度大會選出未來的總會幹部，D67區的長遠目標為何？誰又是帶領台灣總會走向未來的最佳人選？與候選人們對談，問問他們將如何領導，在選賢舉能之後，協助他們領導D67區。
好好思考自己在演講會的未來，你前進的目標是什麼？利用年度大會的經驗幫助自己釐清你在溝通與領導的下一步。在年度大會尋找學習的金磚，回到分會後，與無法前來的會員們分享。聽聞你的經驗後，不但可以使他們身歷其境，也能促使他們明年親自參與。
細細品味年度大會，繼續你光彩奪目的演講會旅程！
致上最深的謝意,
Lark Doley, DTM
世界總會長 2018-2019
