Golden Gavel Clubs 

 

Clubs with well-run, lively, and educational meetings that meet the needs of their members earn the Golden Gavel Award. This award is recognized with a ribbon that can be added to their club banner, and is awarded annually to a club at the annual Year End Celebration.

The club must meet all of the following criteria:

  • Members and guests are greeted warmly and enthusiastically. 
  • Meeting starts and adjourns on time.
  • 15 or more club members must be present (clubs with fewer than 20 members must have 75% of members present).
  • At least one non-Toastmaster guest is present.
  • There is applause after every speaker – functionaries included. *
  • All speeches are path speeches.
  • Evaluations are both specific and supportive.
  • Participants are positively recognized and ribbons/rotating trophies are awarded. *
  • Members wear badges and guests are given name tags. *
  • Printed agendas are distributed and followed with 3 or fewer assignment changes to the agenda. *
  • Table Topics are interesting and/or fun – participants are able to speak the full time period.

* Virtual meetings – Adjust as needed to remain complaint with local laws & recommendations. • Applause – If non-speakers are muted, some video conferencing options allow virtual applause or Jazz hands. • Recognition with ribbons/rotating trophies. Some video conferencing options may allow surveys, chat, polling. Awards can be virtual. Recognition is the important component and should be included if possible. • Printed Agendas – can be emailed to all or posted in the chat for guests. • Name badges – the participant or meeting organizer can often rename the attendees if needed.
