Catherine MacGillivray DTM reported that we started with 124 clubs, two clubs are currently not financial.<br />
One new club recently chartered so up to 123. One of the two clubs who are not currently financial<br />
should be financial again soon; therefore we will be back up to 124 clubs. Goals are set out in the report,<br />
we want 128 clubs and need to think about how we can grow clubs and also how clubs can become<br />
distinguished. Our goal is to have 50% of clubs to be distinguished. We have submitted all reports on<br />
time so that we are eligible to be distinguished <strong>District</strong> this coming year. <strong>Toastmasters</strong> Leadership<br />
Institute’s (TLI) held have been awesome and are great to be a part of. Some divisions hold two<br />
sessions of Club Officer Training at TLI so that people who are interested in different roles attend both<br />
sessions. The Above and Beyond award is a great incentive for clubs, the <strong>District</strong> <strong>73</strong> Website is being reworked.<br />
