Babble-On Toastmasters

We're excited to announce that Babble-On Club just received the Smedley Distinguished Award!

Babble-On Toastmasters has received the President's Distinguished Award from Toastmasters International for the past 20 years, which was the highest level of recognition in the Toastmasters International Distinguished Club Program (DCP).

This program year, Toastmasters introduced The Smedley Distinguished Club. To achieve this, clubs must attain all 10 DCP goals and maintain a membership of at least 25 members. It represents top-tier excellence in education, membership, training, and administration.

We are able to achieve this milestone because we are a club with strong leadership and dedicated members who want to succeed together. In our club, every member matters. Your success is our success.
