RECOGNITION
Together, We Achieve Greatness
Join us as we acknowledge and celebrate the remarkable achievements of District 30 clubs and their club members. This is a testament to the power of perseverance, passion, and the unwavering spirit of our members. Let’s continue to inspire each other towards greater heights!
2023 - 2024 Distinguished D30 Clubs
Clubs can track progress toward their goals throughout the year by reviewing the online reports that are posted on the Toastmasters International website at toastmasters.org/DistinguishedPerformanceReports.
At year-end, Toastmasters International calculates the number of goals clubs have met and recognizes them as Distinguished, Select Distinguished, or President’s Distinguished clubs based on membership and the number of goals achieved.
Toastmasters International notifies all clubs of their recognition status after the close of the program year (June 30).
