Planning spring conference visits

Haven’t had much to write in the last few months; the campaign trail is pretty quiet between the last fall district conference, and the first spring conference. I’ve been attending my own club meetings, including the club I coach (South Loop Speak Freaks), home district DEC meetings (I am still the Immediate Past District Governor too), and helping out with club officer mid-year training. Also helping to get a couple of clubs started as well, serving as Toastmaster for demo meetings.

Looks like the districts in Region V are starting to publish spring conference details and registration forms. Four of them are on the same weekend, D22, D30, D43, and D63 are all on April 25-26! So I guess I’ll only get to one of those, and it’ll be D43, since I visited the other three last fall. I’ll make it to five of the eight total, though.

The first is D54 in Bloomington, IL on April 11-12, I can drive to that one, as well as D11 in Nashville, IN, on April 18-19. But I’ll fly to D43 on April 25-26. Joan is going to pick me up in Memphis, which is right on her way from Little Rock to Tupelo (it’s her home district), which is very nice of her.

The Region V registration is out too, so I’ve registered for that and booked my airfare to Kansas City.
