Going way outside the club
I know that some of you have been up in Collingwood the last couple of days for the District 86 fall conference.
There is no doubt in my mind that you will be changed by this experience.
Going outside of your club is a chance to see and meet other toastmasters and benefit from the commeradery and experiences they bring to the table. Plus the socializing.
The spring conference changed me and since then I have traveled many places and attended a Toastmasters meeting in each city I have been to.
Last week I was in Niagara Falls NY for the District 65 conference and although they do things a little differently I have gained terrific insights and will bring new ideas to my club and others that I visit along the way.
This has also increased my willingness to stretch and do new things, such as workshop presenter at the many training sessions that TM offers.
Hopefully when you have returned home your mind will be filled with the possibilities. I and others would be truly interested in your experience and just how it will inspire you to go beyond what you are currently doing.
I look forward to hearing and reading your stories.
