THEME: Together We Are Stronger

At Toastmasters International District 66’s Summer Leadership Institute, we believe Together We Are Stronger—but strength alone isn’t enough. That’s why we’re calling every leader to Level Up—to rise higher in purpose, sharpen your leadership and communication, elevate your club, and boldly pursue your personal, professional, and career goals.

Cindy Laatsch, DTM, our Region 6 Advisor, will be the keynote speaker for the General Session.

In addition to officer training, we are excited to offer two valuable elective sessions. One of these will focus on unlocking the full potential of the Toastmasters Distinguished Club Program (DCP). Presented by Dana Richard, DTM, International Director for Region 7, this session will guide you in aligning your club’s goals and activities with the DCP framework—not merely as a scorecard, but as a strategic roadmap and playbook for sustained growth, member engagement, and club and district excellence.

Then, during our Lunch and Learn session, sharpen your communication skills with The Speaker’s Toolbox, led by Dr. Mike Cannon, MD. Whether you’re a seasoned speaker or just starting your journey, this hands-on elective will equip you with essential tools to craft impactful speeches, deliver with confidence, and connect authentically with any audience.

Please register for the event using the link above.

If you have not submitted your officer list for the next year, please do so by June 30th to earn your first DCP credit for 2025-2026.

Looking forward to seeing you on July 12th.
