Word of Welcome from our Conference Chair

On behalf of my extraordinary conference team, I would like to extend you all a very warm invitation to our 2008 District 61 Fall Conference. Our theme for the conference: "Be a Shining Star!" It's time to step out of the shadows, and let that bright, beautiful star in you shine!

Friday - Come and hear Toastmasters International 1990 World Champion Speaker David Brooks with his dynamite presentation followed by a night of "Disco Fever". Travolta can sit back and
relax while we Toastmasters hit the floor and show off our fancy moves!

Saturday - Day at the Oscars! Get ready to walk the red carpet like the star that you are... whether it be a participant in the banner parade, a first-timer, a contestant in one of our four contests, a workshop presenter, a volunteer at the Communication and Leadership luncheon, an attendee at the District Council Meeting... you are a shining star! And what better way to top off the day than with an extravagant ball under the theme "Be a Shining Star!" Evening attire preferred.

Sunday - You will be receiving the red carpet treatment yet again when you come and hear our French keynote speaker J.A. Gamache. And be wary of the paparazzi who will try and intimidate our Table Topics contestants!

You won't want to miss all the excitement! Won't you join us?
