My message to you at the beginning of this term consisted of 3 simple words: Fantastic, Fun-tastic and Frui-tastic.
Looking back, it has been a fantastic year that was fun and fruitful. The DCP results that I have been reporting speak fruitful volumes for themselves. The remarkable achievements are the results of the fruits of our labour. It is the collective effort of the club members, the club officers, the Area Governors and the Division D Council members with the support of the district. My heart-felt thanks to everyone for your relentless support in the various educational and leadership programmes – COTs, Area and Division Contests, Talk by Dr Catherine Lim and Achievers’ Day.
The quantitative achievements are measurable but importantly the qualitative experience is simply priceless. How do you measure those moments when CPs and toastmasters share with you their trials and tribulations, their joy and triumphs, their determination, courage and perseverance, and their fervent passion for the toastmasters movement? How do you not, but, feel a sense of pride when strong teams constantly raise the bar to challenge themselves, the altruistic teams that contribute unconditionally and the indomitable spirit of the dark horses that never give up but persevere triumphantly to the very end? These are memorable moments that will be etched on the milestones of my toastmasters journey.
The world is a stage and everyone has a part to play – the clock is ticking and in minutes the curtain falls for the last Act of the “Fantastic, Funtastic and Fruitastic 2009-2010 term”. Soon the curtain will rise again for the next Act and the journey continues….
It’s been an honour and privilege to serve as your Division Governor.
Yours in toastmastership
Division D Governor, 2009-10
