District 219 Leadership Team — 2026–2027 Toastmasters Year
District 219 is excited to announce the open call for nominations and applications for the 2026-2027 Toastmasters leadership year!

Now is your chance to step forward, lead with purpose, and help shape the culture and achievements of District 219.
Whether you're an experienced Toastmaster ready for a new challenge or someone who has demonstrated great potential in your club, we encourage you — or someone you know — to consider applying or submitting a nomination.
Step up. Lead forward. Shape the future.
