February 2013 Board Meeting

The 2012-2013 Board of Directors will meet February 22-23, 2013, in Southern California. The Board held its first in-person meeting after the convention in August. Since that time, the Board's committees have met virtually, focusing on topics that support the 2010 Strategic Plan. These virtual meetings have reduced the amount of time Board members need to spend at in-person meetings. This year's February Board meeting schedule has been reduced to two days. Following the completion of the meeting, the results of the discussions will be shared in writing on the Toastmasters International website instead of at a public board briefing or through streaming video. The meeting will be shorter and less expensive, however, the reporting will still be provided in a timely manner.
Members can visit the Toastmasters International website to see the results of the Board meeting on February 25 and the ILC officer nomination results on February 23.

The Speech Contest Rulebook 2013 (Item 1171) will be available later this month. Please check the Toastmasters Online Store in upcoming weeks to purchase the rulebook or to download a free copy.

Ice Breaker speech by Victor Tan

Ice Breaker speech by Victor Tan: Introduction Fellow toastmasters, t oday I want to introduce to you a person that I used to know, someone whom  I hold close to my heart, someone who  I missed so much and someone whom I  hope soon  can be a part of  my life  again. H e is always  happy, full  of imagination and adventurous . He makes fun of himself and  likes to keep life as lightweight as possible. He is also  light hearted, humorous and creative as well.
