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 form of communication has had
on Toastmasters. The 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.
