Toastmasters Districts 10 & 13 are joining together to form District 219
As part of Toastmasters International's worldwide district realignment, Districts 10 and 13 will merge to form the new District 219 beginning July 1, 2026. This change is part of a larger restructuring effort to better serve members and strengthen clubs across the organization.
To learn more about District 219 leadership positions or to nominate yourself or someone else, fill in the form and a committee member will be in touch with you.
Your club membership continues seamlessly. You'll have access to new networking opportunities and a larger community of fellow Toastmasters across four states.
Clubs will be organized into new Areas and Divisions. Your club number, meeting schedule, and operations continue unchanged.
Speech contests continue as usual at club, Area, Division, and District levels. District winners proceed to quarter finals per the Speech Contest Rulebook.
District 219 is part of Region Realignment Group 10 in the 2026-2027 restructuring.
District 219 (shown in burgundy) covers parts of Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Maryland.
