In case you missed it this was posted on the TI Web Page. Toastmasters Web Site Improvements on the Way December 16 - January 3, 2011 System upgrade begins in December Toastmasters International will upgrade its Web site over the holiday season. This action will result in a number of benefits for members, including improved online content and a greater ability to track education awards. To accommodate this upgrade, the Toastmasters' online store will be inactive from 11:59 p.m., Pacific Standard Time, Dec. 15, 2010, until 5 a.m., PST, Jan. 3, 2011. The same will be true for the club and district business sections. In addition, members will not be able to update the "My Profile" section during this time. Because members won't have access to the Club Officer list during this period, we are extending the deadline for Club Officer submissions to Jan. 14, 2011. Annual Inventory Takes Place World Headquarters is conducting physical inventory from Dec. 16, 2010, through Jan. 2, 2011. During that time, the following transactions cannot be processed: a.. Supply orders b.. New member kits c.. Charter kits d.. Education award certificates (including free advanced manuals) Orders received by 11:59 p.m., PST, Dec. 15, 2010, will be processed and shipped. Orders received after that date will be held and processed after Jan. 2, 2011. If you are unable to submit your transaction before Dec. 16, submitting your information online - starting at 5 a.m., PST, Jan. 3, 2011 - will be the fastest way to receive your materials.
