We are excited to invite you to the upcoming 2024 District 3 Conference, 00TOAST: Agent of Influence, an immersive ‘mission’ full of excitement, intrigue, and unforgettable memories!
00TOAST ("double-oh," like James Bond's 007) pays homage to Toastmasters International's 100th Anniversary and dares each one of us to become agents of renewal, inspiration, and reinvention this year.
Come dressed to thrill at this unique event that will feature vibrant keynote speakers, celebrate past and present District operatives, and include inspiring discussions as we look toward the future of Toastmasters International. As an attendee, you'll have the opportunity to connect with a captive audience of Toastmasters enthusiasts and industry leaders alike.
Let's make it a milestone to remember! Be sure to join fellow communicators from around the District using #00TOASTD3 on social media channels.
