We had a great time at the Toastmasters Leadership Institute (TLI) event last Saturday at the University of Bridgeport's Dana Hall. The event was attended by almost 100 people and the feedback we got was incredibly positive.
Special thanks to Steven Rashba and Ward Thrasher from the University of Bridgeport who helped us get the facility and set it up for such an outstanding event.
Also, the presenters were wonderful... Ute Brinkman, Norm Thibodeau, Peggy Jean, Richard Peck, Don Logie, Don E. Smith, Pat Wilson-Perkins, Jay Discount, Marsha Kiley, Brian Cavanaugh, Andre White and Rich Couture.

TLI # 3 - Third Successful Training Event !
On Saturday, July 14th, a bunch of Toastmasters gave up part of a sunny day to attend District 53's Toastmasters Leadership Institute session # 3 of 4 at the Mass Mutual Learning and Conference Center in Chicopee, MA.LGET Karin von Känel, (ACB, ALS) provided some photos to show the success of the event - undivided attention and smiles all around.
Attendence was strong ... maybe not quite as many as when Division A hosted it at Marist College on June 30th, but still very good.
The general consensus was that it was a very worthwhile event and attendees took home some good information.
We hope to see you at TLI # 4 on July 28th in Manchester, CT ! Club officers are encouraged to attend and the event is open to any Toastmaster who would like to learn more about how to improve their club and their Toastmasters experience!

Wanted: TLI (Toastmasters Leadership Institute) Instructors on 6/9, 6/30, 7/14, and 7/28
Fellow Toastmasters,
Are you ready for another Leadership experience?
Every year, on July 1, new people are taking office in every Toastmasters club. This offers a great opportunity for everybody to try something new!
This is also an opportunity for you to get involved: We need volunteers for TLI: Toastmasters who'll apply their speaking and leadership skills and become TLI instructors, Toastmasters who'll run the registration table, Toastmasters who'll be facilities coordinators, food coordinators, ...
This year, there will be 3 TLIs:
6/9 in Hudson NY
6/30 in Poughkeepsie NY
7/14 in Chicopee MA
There will also be a major Division B/C training event:
7/28 in Manchester CT
Would you please let me know:
- whether you can volunteer for the above events (let me know which ones you can volunteer for)
- what roles you're willing to volunteer for (presenter, registration desk, facilities coordinator, ...)
I'd also appreciate if you'd forward this email to your clubs/areas so others who're interested can step up.
I hope I'll hear from you soon!
Thank you very much!
Best regards,
Karin von Kaenel
P.S.: This is also an opportunity to do your HPL, e.g. on being a facilities coordinator for all TLIs.

Club Officer Elections in May - Attend TLI in June/July
From: Karin von Kaenel
Date: May 3, 2007 7:10 AM
Date: May 3, 2007 7:10 AM
Are your clubs ready for another leadership growth experience?
Every year, on July 1, new people are taking office in every Toastmasters club.
This offers a great opportunity for everybody to try something new: Club members can become club officers and club officers can take a different office or apply for a District assignment.
This is also an opportunity for the current officers to apply their leadership in a new way: Find successors and show them the ropes, be a mentor to them, be a role model.
By encouraging your clubs' members to try something new, to step outside of their comfort zone, and by supporting them when they take that challenge, you help them grow!
Let's build leaders who want to get involved, have the courage to act, and care for others by running the clubs!
The time to act is now:
- Start immediately by encouraging you clubs to hold club elections in May.
- Ask your clubs to submit the new club officers list online right after the elections at https://ecommerce.toastmasters.org/timssnet/login/tnt_login.cfm
- Ensure that all of your clubs' members know about TLI (Toastmasters Leadership Institute), the best chance for every Toastmaster, but especially for officers, to learn about leadership. This year, TLI will take place on 3 different dates in 3 different places :
6/9 Hudson NY
6/30 Poughkeepsie NY
7/14 Chicopee MA
Further details will be published towards the end of the month at http://www.district53toastmasters.org/
I hope to see all of your clubs' officers at TLI!
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.
Thank you for all you're doing for your clubs!
Sincerely,
Karin von Kaenel, CTM/AL
Lt.Governor - Marketing, District 53
