Experience Quality Communication and Leadership Opportunities At Toastmasters
Welcome message from our new District 86 Director
We are going to take this year and turn it upside down! With the guidance of our leaders and the help of our members we’re going to grow bigger, better and stronger!
This year a new District came into existence, merging parts of D86 and D60 to create District 123. Our D86 banner now reads Southwestern and Central Ontario. Our Northern friends have become a vital and vibrant part of D123. We wish them well as they begin this new Toastmasters year in a new district.
Scope out our new Website and let us know what you like, what could use some adjustment and what else can be added to make your experience an informative and enjoyable one.
Myrna Barthe, DTM
District 86 Director, 2021-2022
