Do you like to organize people and events? Do you enjoy making things run smoothly? Can you be three places at once and make it look easy?

If so, consider becoming a District Conference Chair to put your logistic skills to work.

A District Conference Chair serves for a single district conference (spring or fall) to coordinate all planning and execution activities. This coordination includes:

• Help in the selection of the host site
• Be involved in all phases of planning the conference: publicity, presenters, committees, registration, ceremonies, contests, meals, etc.
• Select all chair persons to serve as your conference committee chairs
• Work with all involved: the District Trio, the presenters, the host site staff, the caterers, etc.
• Assure all printed materials are done, and done properly
• Make sure appreciation and recognition is given to all who help with the conference

You may be asking yourself, "What's in it for me?" While no two of us are exactly alike, here are some ways that being a District Conference Chair may benefit you.

• Gain satisfaction from helping others meet their personal goals
• Get recognition from district officers as they show appreciation for your efforts
• Become a better communicator as you interact with Toastmasters serving in a variety of positions and having a diversity of skills
• Be one of the most visible persons at a conference while practicing your speaking skills
