One ribbon + 10 small stars + 1 BIG star = Distinguished!
This formula for success will help D25 clubs keep track of
their DCP credits while having some fun as they achieve their goals. What’s it
all about?
| Watch the stars shine for each goal |
Caution: This ribbon is different from the ones your club has earned in the past. This ribbon is a visual reminder of the goals your club must meet in order to be Distinguished in 2012-2013, the upcoming Toastmasters year, NOT a reward for past success in the previous Toastmasters year ending June 30, 2012!
On the ribbon are 10 boxes, one for each DCP goal that all Toastmasters clubs are supposed to pursue during each club year. A link to these goals may be found at http://www.d25toastmasters.org/resources/files/DCPWorksheet.doc.

| Ten stars lead to the BIG ONE |
Each club receives 10 small and one large star to go on the ribbon. As your club completes each DCP goal, place a star onyour ribbon to mark this measure of your club’s success.
After the March 30 dues renewal, place the large star at the top when the club has met the membership goal: Having 20 or more members or a net growth of 5 for clubs with a base of 12 or fewer. (Note: Clubs that picked up stars June 30 TLI did not get a large star. Just ask for one at an upcoming district event. This project has evolved since June 30! We just keep on gettin’ better and better!)
During the 2011-2012 Toastmasters year, 88 of our clubs were Distinguished, Select Distinguished or President’s Distinguished. During the 2012-2013 year, we want every club to be Distinguished or better! Your club’s new DCP ribbon will help you keep your club’s goals before you in a fun way.
