Division D Leaders, Happy Holidays and Happy New Year! Oh my goodness the year has flown by! We are heading into 2025 in just a few days. It was great to see some of you at the D106 Holiday party, and I hope everyone has an opportunity to relax and spend some quality time over the next couple of weeks. A shout-out to our Area Director team for getting 100% of the club visits completed by the end of November. I hope their feedback was helpful for you to continue to be successful in your clubs. There is another round of club visit reports in the spring. Take advantage of the opportunity to connect with your Area Director, and ask for help or suggestions. A special shout out to our clubs for exceptional performance: Whole Wheat has already added 5 new members to their club this year! Tic Talkers and Allianz Toasters have met 4 of their DCP goals. Pillsbury, Tic Talkers, and Building New Hope have added 4 new members. Park Place, Tic Talkers...
