Toastmasters International conducts several membership building contests during the year, providing recognition for both individuals and Clubs.
The Smedley Award is presented to Clubs that add at least five new members between August 1 and September 30.
The Talk Up Toastmasters Award is presented to Clubs that add at least five new members between February 1 and March 31.
The Beat The Clock Award is presented to Clubs that add at least five new members between May 1 and June 30.
The Top Five Membership Campaigns contest recognizes Clubs who conduct innovative, organized and successful membership building contests.
You will hear a lot more about our upcoming "Talk Up Toastmasters Contest" at the turn of the year. And we need to look at this as offering an opportunity for others to experience what we experience each week; learning and having fun ... developing skills that will help us in the workplace, at church, PTA, and anywhere else we happen to be called upon.
This isn't your dad's membership drive of years gone by ... we're going to tell others about Toastmasters!
