As they are free, they might be up for only a short time, until they get paying clients for those spaces. The spaces are in: Pontiac, on South Boulevard west of Woodward, and Warren, on Grossbeck north of 9 Mile. If any of you see these and can snap a picture with your cell phone or a digital that you could forward to me at kevinolmstead76 at yahoo.com, I'd appreciate it! Please include your name and TI designation. The clearest/best shots in the opinion of whatever judges I can gather will be included in a future edition of the Cornerstone! Thanks, and have a great weekend! ----Kevin Olmstead, DTM District 28 PRO -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Message-ID: <460186BB.6020406@umd.umich.edu> This message is being sent out on behalf of D28 Lt. Governor of Marketing, Vicki Brannon. (She is having "computer issues.") Please relay it to your clubs. Thank you. Good afternoon all, Oh MY!!! Another nag note! Yes, ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Toasters and Toastettes, it is dues time. April 1 is a VERY short 10 days away and only 19 clubs are showing as having the April dues paid to TI. Please make it a point to get those dues in this week." Kind Regards, Vicki Brannon Lt. Governor, Marketing District 28 Toastmasters From mary at sinda-comfort.com Thu Mar 22 09:08:31 2007 From: mary at sinda-comfort.com (Mary Comfort) Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2007 09:08:31 -0400 Subject: [D28_community] Just one day left! Message-ID: <000501c76c83$30ca2c20$6404a8c0@capdom2.local> That's right, folks! The Spring Conference is quite a deal at $99 for the entire package, but the price goes up to $109 after tomorrow, March 23rd. Can't gather the funds by tomorrow? That's okay because we now have the technology to accept credit cards! (online only). Go to www.d28toastmasters.org and follow the Spring Conference links. Also check out the Schedule of Events and Workshop Listing. Staying overnight? Mention Toastmasters for a special room rate of $86 (we've seen the hotel, so trust me - this is a great deal too!) but that price expires next Friday, March 30th. I am still accepting your gracious offers to help out at the conference AND it's not too late to purchase an ad for the program! See me for answers to all your questions... thanks in advance for your help in making this conference a huge success! Leaders DO Make It Possible! ~ Leaders like YOU make it possible!
