Overview

Toastmasters International provides each club with an award if the club achieves certain goals during the year. The members of Durack are proud to have achieved the highest possible award of “President’s Distinguished Club” for the past seven straight years, every year from 2002/2003 to 2008/2009.

2. Two more Competent Communicators (total of four)
3. One Advanced Communicator
4. One more Advanced Communicator (total of at least two)
5. One Leadership Award
6. One more Leadership Award (total of at least two)
7. Four new members
8. Four more new members (total of at least eight)

The Toastmasters year runs from the 1st of July to the 30th of June. All the members of Durack are working hard to achieve President’s Distinguished Club yet again in 2009/2010.

It’s only half way through the year, but we have completed the require the 10th goal and we’re on track for the 9th goal Educational achievements will be lodged during the next few months which should see us ticking off several of the educational goals as well.
