Platinum Page Award

Overview

The Platinum Page award was created to recognize the significance of the Internet as a communications tool. Because of the explosive growth of the Web as a means to access information, clubs cannot afford to ignore the impact that this new form of communication will have on Toastmasters. This award recognizes the excellence of club webmasters in presenting their club and Toastmasters on the Web.

Even though a club may have a web site, each club must submit an entry for the Platinum Page contest for every year that it wishes to enter. Once the entries are received, a team of judges will evaluate the web sites and render a decision. The Platinum Page award winner will be announced at the Hall of Fame presentation at the annual District 4 Spring Conference.
