		<description>Judy recently attended her first Toastmasters Leadership Institute (TLI-Lite) in Hendersonville, NC. 

While talking with Deb Lee, DTM and former District 37 Governor she learned that Deb is running for an International Representative position in Toastmasters International besides being an active member and officer in four clubs in two states and being a full time consultant.

Judy asked Deb, &quot;Why do you do all that and push yourself so hard?&quot;

Deb replied with a Big Smile and a glow on her face that I&#039;ve never seen Deb without,

 &quot;Because it&#039;s so much FUN!&quot; 

It&#039;s the same answer I hear everywhere I go with Toastmasters --- ever wonder what you&#039;re missing out on? Visit a club near you soon and get caught up in Toastmasters!
