A message from District 202 Director, Dr. Angelina Dickey, DTM

On July 1, Toastmasters District 202 begins as a new district built on legacy, purpose, and possibility, and I am humbled to serve as your first District Director.

From the central coast to the greater Los Angeles area, we are a community of Toastmasters clubs across Divisions A–G, united to grow, learn, and lead together.

District 202 is shaped by the legacy of Districts 52, 33, and 100, bringing together strength, service, and excellence into one unified future.

This year, I will work alongside you to strengthen mentoring, coaching, club growth, and program quality, so every club and member is supported and equipped to succeed.

Our theme is BEST:

Build Excellence
Empower Leaders
Support Members
Thrive Together

District Mission: We build new clubs and support all clubs in achieving excellence.

I welcome ideas, best practices, and insights from all members—new, current, and past. Your voice matters, and together we shape our success.

I also extend our gratitude to our past district leaders for their service and the strong foundation they have built.

I invite you to join me in moving District 202 forward by working together to support our members and district leaders, building a culture of collaboration, growth, and shared success.

Get involved:

  • Explore our clubs across Divisions A–G
  • View the district map, calendar, and leadership team
  • Attend Club Officer Training (online Saturdays and weekdays)
  • Join in-person district events to connect and build relationships
  • Participate in Learning Labs and Mentors Circle, where current and past leaders learn and grow together

District 202 is a place where you belong, grow, and thrive—supported by leaders committed to giving their best and achieving the best.

“Small, intentional steps lead to meaningful and lasting results.”

Welcome to District 202.

Let’s make this our BEST year yet.

A Message from the District 202 Club Growth Director, Umanga De Silva, DTM

Greetings Toastmasters Members and Leaders!

Welcome to an exciting new Toastmasters year 2026-2027 !

As your Club Growth Director, I am honored and excited to begin this journey with each of you. A new year brings fresh opportunities, renewed energy, and endless possibilities to strengthen our clubs and expand our impact.

Toastmasters change lives, one speech, one meeting, and one member at a time. Club growth is not simply about numbers; it is about creating welcoming communities where members feel supported, challenged, and inspired to become confident communicators and leaders.

This year, our focus will be centered on three key areas:

✨ Building Strong Clubs – Supporting clubs to create engaging, valuable experiences that encourage members to stay and grow.
✨ Expanding Opportunities – Chartering new clubs and reaching communities that can benefit from the Toastmasters experience.
✨ Member Matters Most – Helping every member feel connected, recognized, and empowered in their personal leadership journey.

Growth begins with visibility, continues through meaningful experiences, and succeeds through teamwork. Together, club officers, district leaders, and members can create an environment where clubs thrive and members achieve more than they imagined possible.

I encourage every member to invite a guest, mentor a new Toastmaster, and become an ambassador for our mission.

Thank you for your commitment, passion, and service. I look forward to working with all of you as we build stronger clubs, create lasting connections, and make this an extraordinary year! Here’s to growth, excellence, and reaching new heights together!

Warm regards,
Umanga De Silva, DTM
Club Growth Director, D202, 2025–2026
