After some review by PRO Tina Tomiyama, and one of her staff, Linda Levy, my July 2008 District Governor's message got a face-lift. If you look at the District ONE web site, you will see the following revised District Governor's message:
It’s Been ONE Great Year!
Fellow District One Toastmasters: Pat yourselves on the back!
You’ve exceeded all expectations this year!
Here are just a few of your impressive accomplishments for 2007-2008:
• District One Toastmasters earned more educational and leadership awards than ever before
• 51 District One clubs reached Distinguished status or better (not counting year-end stats, which will bring the total even higher)
• Record numbers of District One club officers participated in the Toastmasters Learning College (close to 300 officers trained)
• Over 200 people attended the 2008 District One Spring Conference
Our theme for 2007-2008 is “Toastmasters – Serve ONE – Serve All.” When you set new goals for yourself and your clubs, you contribute to the success of the entire District.
So, what’s up next for you?
• Set a date to attain your next educational/leadership award
• Mentor a new Toastmaster
• Inquire about opportunities for involvement outside your individual club
Whatever your goals in the coming year, District One officers are here to support you. I’m honored to be your District Governor for 2008-2009 and look forward to serving you.

About Me - My Toastmaster Profile
- Michael Jue, DTM
- Los Angeles, CA, United States
- I am a slow learner, having joined Toastmasters with the intent to be a member for one year to practice the skills that I had learned in Speechcraft. Speechcraft is a four to eight session workshop designed to teach non-Toastmasters communication skills, and incidentally to bring in new members to the sponsoring Toastmasters club. I joined Northrop Grumman Toastmasters Club 212 that had sponsored an eight-session Speechcraft. That was in November of 1978. What I learned was that my membership in Toastmasters has provided me with the opportunity to learn things that I would never learned on my job or in my personal life. Likewise, I have had the opportunity to meet people and to do things that I would not have had on my job or in my life. Most of all, I learned about myself and how I am with different people in different situations. This has been one tremendous ride so far, and I invite you to join us!
