Summer ends and fall begins; don't you love how the leaves change color? Wait...this is the Inland Empire. Unless you live up in Big Bear, those palm and eucalyptus trees do not change their colors. It is, however, time to renew your Toastmasters membership in all your favorite clubs. "Dues are due," as we love to say in District 1 2. Have you considered joining a specialty club like Storytellers or Mastermind to improve your ability to tell stories or expound on a new business venture in Division A? How about helping coach other clubs by joining Tumbleweeds in Division D? That's Debatable in Division B can challenge you to take sides by debating the current issues of the day. Perhaps the advanced evaluations offered by Circle ofChampions in Division C, is more to your liking. I know the new concept of a gourmet club in Division E is most definitely in line with my "tastes". I recently had the pleasure of attending Division E's new club, Panda Masters, for their chartering ceremony in Chino Hills. This club is seriously on a mission of self improvement as they make future leaders and communicators. Lt. Governor Marketing, Esther Phahla, and New Club chair, Lois Sicking , are busy building new clubs in every division. Join them for the next launch meeting and rekindle within yourself that excited feeling of helping get a new club started.

I have attended five area contests in almost every division this year. I am so impressed with high level of evaluations and the seriously funny humorous speeches presented. What talent we have in our District! Do attend the upcoming Division contests and register now for our District 1 2 Fall conference on November 8 and 9 at the Ontario Airport Hotel. For only $85 you can see the District finals of the Evaluation and Humorous speech contests, be inspired by 2011 World Champion finalist Olivia Schoefield and learn from our Region 1 0 International Director Don Griffith . Please see the flyer in this issue of Images. Remember, the important Business meeting is free to attend. Club presidents and VPs of Education should fill out the proxy form in this issue of Images if you are unable to personally attend.

Lt. Governor of Education and Training 2013-2014 Advanced Manuals

Kent Peterson, DTM District 1 2 LGET

In our continuing series of looking at the Advanced Communications Series, this month we look at the " Interpersonal Communication" Manual. We communicate every day, whether with the boss, a spouse, our children, fellow workers, friends, etc. Communication is not always easy and is not always received the way the sender intended. Topics in this manual include: Conversing with ease, negotiating, handling criticism, coaching someone to improve performance and expressing dissatisfaction effectively. This is an absolute must manual for individuals to enhance personal skills. "Visit:" A 5 letter word with a lot of potential. Imagine if all Toastmasters visited a club other than their home club. What you will see is a different energy, another way to do things, ideas you can bring back to your home club, and chances to meet new people. A few of the clubs in our district have 50% or more of their members who have visited other clubs. This is really a great way to learn how other clubs give evaluations or Table Topics or how they manage their meetings. By visiting clubs, we build excitement in district 1 2.

I have been asked to visit two different meetings this year where multiple areas got together and had 20-30 people attend. These meetings were extremely well organized, had great educationals, were entertaining and thought provoking. These were not regular meetings but Value Added meetings. Sometimes we can't get all the information we want into our regular club meetings and it is great to have other meetings where we can get together and learn from each other. Visit other clubs and see what they have to offer. Have a sister club come and visit yours. See if you can get 3 or 4 members from one club to visit another. Volunteer to do one of the functionary roles. Be a Toastmaster Ambassador.

To get your own copy of Interpersonal Communication

and other Advanced Manuals, visit www.toastmasters.org

On a totally different subject, this is contest season and one thing I always enjoy is clubs that come out and support their members. Not only does it make the club member feel good, it shows there are carrying members. I hope to see you at Area, Division and the District contest. As the Lt. Governor of Education and Training for 201 3/201 4 I am here to serve District 1 2 and can be reached at lget@d1 2 toastmasters.org or 909-705-9800 .

VP Public Relations is an important position within each club; it is the VP PR's responsibility to generate positive awareness of the Toastmasters brand for the purpose of attracting and retaining members. It requires keeping the public and members informed about club or district activities through effective communication channels and media relations. Good PR will build membership and gain public recognition.

A Tribute to the Life of Beloved Husband, Son. Brother, Uncle, Friend & Toastmaster.

Bruce Murphy

Bruce passed away on September 1 st after a two-year battle with cancer. It was a heroic fight and one we really thought he would win. Bruce had many interests, golf was number one. He also loved to fish, and once took the trip of his life when he went with a buddy to pan for gold. As a member of TM Club 651 3 The Starlifters he shared his love of panning for gold in the stories he told. Everyone looked forward to hearing about his golden adventures. He also enlightened our group on other topics. Bruce will be missed. Charles Z. Radney , President Club 6513

Approaching a Chartering date progresses through the basics, the fundamentals and coming along side, “buddying” techniques, TM best practices, the Launch Team is using. Keller-Williams (KW) Rancho Cucamonga Club is building nicely to Chartering strength! District 1 2’s New Clubs Extension Chair, Lois Sicking , DTM, PDG, and Club Coaches Chair Leigh Adams , DTM (Division A New Clubs Chair), are giving KW an excellent example about the benefits Toastmasters has for individuals on their team by modeling the experience through engagement with the KW staff.

(Please forgive me if I missed your name and you are a part of this team. I’ll be sure to add you to the November update.) You may recall that in the September Images issue I invited you to stay tuned because I would compare what I learned at the Toastmasters International Convention in Cincinnati this past August, and how it relates to what the Team is doing in Division A. I will have to pick-up that thread in November D1 2 Images newsletter. There’s just too much GOOD to share about what is happening in Division A. See you in the next “spine-tingling” episode of Division A: MISSION POSSIBLE!

Division B, Burning Bright All Members make a difference I am so proud of Division B happenings, and it is all because the members take charge, complete the mission and move ahead to more accomplishments.

Marilyn Nepkie, DTM Division B Governor

This month, sometimes known as “Contest Month”, our five area Governors , Michael Zlaklet, ATMS,CL, with assistant Patrick Hennessey, DTM , Christine Ferrera ACB,CL Gloria Golike,ACS,ALS, with assistant Kathie Martin ,CC,CL, Jonathan Albin , ACB, with assistant Cecil Karstensen , DTM, and Reginald Crosby, ACS, ALB (Reggie) continue to motivate the club members to go beyond the clubs and participate at area contests. Let me highlight Division B area contests so far to show how Division B continues to make a difference from first timer to experienced Toastmaster. The first timer member contestant inspires the experienced member to remember why he/she joined Toastmasters. Likewise, the experienced members provide the foundational tools for the first timer contestant to go beyond the club for successful results. This is making a difference one member at a time, as evidenced by a hugely successful area B3 contest on Sept 1 4, 201 3, in Hesperia at Keller Williams Reality. As we arrived at the contest, we were cordially welcomed by the registration “team” and given a well-constructed program including a sample judging criteria ballot, with an agenda and the sponsoring clubs of Area B3 clubs. The room was neatly set with chairs for all and once we found our seats, we were directed to the array of refreshments to enjoy while networking with other toastmaster members, while the contestants and judges were being briefed. Then first time SAA Lance Charnow gaveled the contest to assemble, and Area B3 Governor Gloria Golike officially called the contest to order. Toastmster of the day, Rick Danzey, PID,PDG, introduced the evaluation contest Toastmaster, Assistant area Governor, Kathie Martin , CC,CL who was not only a first timer assistant governor and first timer at a contest, but also first timer Evaluation TM. She conducted her portion of the contest with aplomb. The lesson here for a new member is: when the opportunity knocks, take it and “give it all you got.” The lesson for a seasoned member is to remember why you joined Toastmasters and continue to take the steps to

further your growth by giving back to the new member what you have learned. We all make a difference together for which we can be proud. The humorous contest led by Toastmaster Linda Ellsworth , CC, an experienced toastmaster, brought us into the humorous mode with comments by Mark Twain. The three humorous contestants included two new to humorous contests and a returning TM. All with expertly prepared and rehearsed speeches regarding grandma’s statements, airports and perfect presents. A lesson learned was that whatever we do in life there is always take home value and a toastmaster there to help us grow a more successful life. Area B3 you set the bar high! On September 28th the other areas of Division B will showcase their clubs at the Feldhyme Library in San Bernardino and I am looking forward to an equally successful contest. The contest chair, Pamela Corl , CC is a first time contest chair, and took on this position without hesitation showing her leadership qualities in delegating positions to appropriate people. With the continuous help from all the new and experienced members and the Division Counsel members Kay Starr, DTM, Monica Mendoza, DTM, Sybille Phillips , DTM, Mary Saxon Hobbs , DTM and new SAA Robert Cothern , CC everyday; I am proud to be Division B governor. The admiration for the new members and experienced Toastmasters inspire other members to continue to share how this great organization, started in 1 924 by Dr. Ralph Smedley, and continues to make a difference from new and experienced members helping each other communicate for a successful life and world. Lesson learned: Speak out via telephone, “tele-internet” and tell a person what Toastmasters has done for you and how Toastmasters makes a difference and creates leaders around the world.

Happy Talk's Vision: Not Just Lip Service Members of Happy Talk Toastmasters Club 6642 in Riverside are fired up for success! The 201 2/1 3

year was a tough year for one of District 1 2’s historically high-performing clubs. Having to relocate from the club’s home of more than 1 5 years, the club’s membership and distinguished club status suffered.

With a fire in their bellies, Happy Talk Toastmasters are not just playing lip service with their newly charged vision “To become the flagship club of the Inland Empire.” Big words for a club, but according to club president, Jolene Church , “Not being recognized by the District this year was unacceptable for me and I felt we needed to brush the dust off and get busy.” Church and the club officers developed the beginning of a strategic comeback plan over lunch at TLI. Super-charged, Happy Talk officers finalized long and short-term strategic goals with a follow up matrix of tasks and completion dates. Once the plan was finalized the new vision was imparted to the club in a series of motivational speeches. “Everyone is infected with this drive for club success. It’s infectious!” states Church. The club’s forward thinking approach required Happy Talk to look for a new space to accommodate their anticipated growth. Happy Talk partnered with UCR’s California Museum of Photography (CMP) and is now holding their weekly meetings at the CMP in the 3rd floor occularium which was designed exclusively for speaking acoustics. Less than 2 months into the new TM year, Happy Talk achieved 5 of 1 0 goals from the Distinguished Club Plan and is rapidly advancing toward Select and once again Presidential status. “We couldn’t have done this without having a game plan. We are strategically setting out not only to succeed but excel.” For more information visit HappyTalkTM.com

Tammy Dear Tammy,

Toastmaster

We'd like to help our club grow and have been advised to host an Open House. We've hosted one in the past, and it had low attendance. Can you offer any recommendations to improve turnout and have guests wanting to come back? - Hospitality Hannah Dear Hannah, Hospitality is the key to a successful Open House, and the best way to increase attendance is through publicity. Use social media such as Facebook, LinkedIn and Meetup. Circulate eye-catching flyers (with the who/what/when/where/why) around your community including Chambers of Commerce, libraries, and other Toastmaster clubs. Members should be encouraged to publicize Toastmasters at their jobs, in the employee break room, and at business mixers. Have an incentive award for members who bring in the most guests. Always serve refreshments at your Open House and have lots of Toastmasters magazines, brochures and membership applications with the dues info filled in. Conduct a mini Toastmasters meeting with at least one speech, one evaluation and lively table topics so your guests can see how comfortable a typical meeting really is. If your Open House has food, fun and fellowship, your guests will look forward to the next meeting. Don't forget to pick up the phone and make that personal call to past guests and invite them back. Good hospitality goes a long way. ☺
