District 101 Toastmasters

District 101 is a lively and diverse Toastmasters organization that prides itself on putting members first. We have a supportive community of Toastmaster members of all levels who are here to learn about how to reach goals together.

Our District Director’s theme for the year 2024-25 is Your Story Matters

“Your Story Matters” is more than a theme—it’s a call to share the chapters that define us. Each narrative of resilience, triumph, and growth, whether personal, professional, or within Toastmasters, has the power to inspire, influence, and impact others.  Let’s celebrate our narratives, unlocking their transformative potential to inspire a ripple effect of connection and growth among the district members.

Programs & Events

Throughout the year, D101 provides a variety of opportunties through Events & Conferences and Speech Contests, Education/Training to grow your speaking and leadership skills and District Programs to help grow your club and reach educational goals.  Get the most out of your membership by participating in all the district has to offer!

Toastmasters Leadership Institute

For D101, the TLI is a premier educational event!  This year’s theme is “Your Story Matters” and offers a unique opportunity to get up close and personal with our guest speaker, Pres Vasilev, World Champion of Public Speaking 2013. Listen to his semi-final speech in a dynamic presentation where he will also share how to create your own compelling story.  Be ready for the International Speaking Contest!

Your story matters. It’s up to you to refine it.

District Programs

 

District Programs are club incentives for club goals reached by participating in District Programs that help grow your club. By participating in these District Programs, clubs can earn District Credits that can be used for one of three purposes:

  • Buy items at the Toastmasters store. There are lots of gadgets that are very useful to clubs – get some meeting equipment, awards, gifts, and so on. These will spruce up your club meetings, make your club look more professional, attract guests and new members, and reward achievements.
  • Convert the credits to physical gift certificates for use at the store later, or to give as gifts. Gift certificates don’t expire.
  • Free tickets to the District conferences! Clubs can use District credits to cover registration fees of district conferences so your members attend for free. Many of us in the District can attest to the inspiration, enrichment, and information we learned from the amazing speakers at these conferences, and we highly encourage our club members to attend.
