DLT Dispatches – October 2017

Pedro Casillas (District Director)

At the D91 Autumn Conference to be held at the Hilton Hotel, Gatwick Airport on 4 November, we will be holding our first District Council Meeting for the 2017-18 Toastmaster’s year (the agenda for District Council can be found on the D91 website).

The District Council is made up of Club Presidents, Club Vice Presidents Education, Area Directors, Division Directors and District Leadership Team members and its purpose is for the D91, District Leadership team (DLT) to share our plans and goals with members and to ask that they be accepted.  We will, for example, be presenting the D91 Budget, which we will be believe will help the whole of the District to continue to grow and prosper. Other items include a review of the District Success Plan and a chance to hear from all District Leaders.

Ahead of District Council we would like all Club Presidents to review all Agenda items and all the documentation which can be found on the link above so that you will have a better idea of what it is that you will be asked to vote on.
