District 36 is excited to announce that our special guest and C&L Awardee this fall is author and NPR radio host Diane Rehm. Diane is a native Washingtonian. She began her radio career in 1973 as a volunteer at WAMU and progressed to producer and host. For 25 years, she has offered her listeners compelling conversations with the world's most interesting and important people. Diane has also launched a successful career as a writer, publishing two autobiographical books Finding My Voice and with her husband, Toward Commitment: A Dialogue about Marriage.
District 36 is one of 82 Toastmasters Districts World-wide. Currently, District 36 has six Divisions, 35 Areas, and approximately 200 Toastmasters Clubs. Our borders include the Northeast and Northwest quadrants of Washington D.C., all of Montgomery County, Maryland, and part of Prince George's County, Maryland north of a line extended from the north-south dividing line of Washington D.C., eastward along East Capitol Street and Central Avenue to the county's eastern border.
CHALLENGE YOUR IMAGINATION
is the District's theme for the 2008-2009 Toastmasters year.
Imagination is creativity at its best. It's the use of our talents and skills to bring things from the
abstract into reality. Remember that the next time you look at a light bulb or use a cellular telephone.
Imagination turned into reality. I challenge you to challenge yours. Use your creativity to make your
meetings exciting and your evaluations valuable! Challenge Your Imagination! You'll never know what's in
you until you try.
Sandra Coles-Bell, DTM
District 36 Governor, 2008-2009
