Meet the Leaders Wanting to Shape the Future of District 55

Each year, the District Leadership Committee seeks qualified candidates for the following elected positions:

✅ District Director

✅ Program Quality Director

✅ Club Growth Director

✅ Division Directors (5 positions)

Serving as a district leader is a rewarding experience that builds leadership, communication, and organizational skills. This year we have an amazing group of Toastmasters who want to shape the future for our District!


This is the time to find out who they are, what their qualifications are, and what they want to achieve. Then at the upcoming Virtual Candidate Showcase on May 5th from 7pm-9pm (via zoom), you can listen to their pitches and get to ask them questions!
