Clubs meeting five of these goals attain Distinguished Club status; clubs reaching 7 goals are recognized as Select Distinguished; clubs that achieve 9 of 10 are lauded as Presidents Distinguished Clubs.
Afterburners Club takes great and proper pride in achieving ALL TEN of these goals each year, and the sooner the better! Here's how we're doing since July 1 when the Toastmasters year began:
Goal #5, One CL, ALB or DTM: Tammy Bailey finished a CL manual on July 27.
Goal #7, Four new members: Ryan Gallagher, John Bacon, and Juan & Marla Tovar.
Goal #9, Minimum of four officers trained: All 7 of Afterburners officers were trained during this training period, so we will have another Super 7 ribbon to add to our banner! This must be done twice, so it counts as a half point.
We have 2.5 points toward our goal of 10, and the achievements keep accruing for the loud & proud Afterburners! Look for more updates as we advance toward Presidents Distinguished yet again!
