District 50 News & Resources

Today is the first day of the Base Camp outage. An email was sent from Toastmasters International on September 6th entitled ‘A Base Camp outage is happening soon.’ This outage is due to the transition to the new system that will be rolling out. The outage should last from October 9 – October 25. During this outage, your profile and educational details will be migrated to the new platform. Continue to speak, give your speeches and move through your levels. Make sure you are keeping track so you can update your education progress once the system is back online. For education programs and pathways content updates, you can review this FAQ.

With fall comes football and homecoming. Each club that hosts a club homecoming and invites 10 prior members will receive $20.00 District 50 Bookstore Bucks!

As I sit on the couch and write this week’s content for the District, the date of September 11th remains at forefront and center of my thoughts and heart. I will never forget where I was. I was in Renton, Washington at the time, and was working for a Government Reseller, Northrup Grumman.
