Toastmaster of the Year (TMOY)

Please take time to recognize a deserving member of your club as the club’s Toastmaster of the Year (TMOY).

Each Toastmasters club has talented, hard-working and dedicated members. Each year, one member stands out because of his/her participation inside and outside the club. This member supports their fellow members, the club, and perhaps the overall Toastmasters organization. These members are deserving of Toastmaster of the Year (TMOY) recognition.

We encourage each club to select a TMOY and send the required form with specific examples of what this member did to receive the TMOY honor. To help the member achieve additional TMOY honors at the area, division, and district levels, please take some time to make the nomination and examples as strong as possible.

Please submit completed forms of your club’s TMOY to your Area Director by June 1st. The Area Director will consider your club’s TMOY for Area TMOY honors, announcing the recipient around June 15th. See below for details.
