Obviously, I’ve never attended one of these before. The main event was “announcements”, where 2VP candidates formalized their ambitions. As widely expected, Mohammed Murad from UAE announced (ID 2007-09), and then Mary G. Russell announced (ID 2008-10), and then I announced (ID 2008-10). Bash Turay (not sure what years he served as ID) announced he is also running again.
It’s going to be fun, that I am certain of!
After the grueling candidates showcase, I had a leisurely lunch with PID Joan Diehl, my campaign manager. She’s going to be the one who keeps me sane this year! *lol* Joan, I couldn’t do this without you!
Finally wrapped up my announcement cards! My campaign team will be handing those out after the convention is gaveled to close on Saturday evening, letting people know I’m running. The basic stuff on the front, and on the back, I’m putting highlights from the Toastmasters calendar for the coming year, so it’s hopefully something useful that will be kept for reference. My thanks to Stella Lorens for patiently making update after update for me, she did a great job!
All done today and it’s off to the printers, 2,500 of them to take to Palm Springs!
