Beat the Clock – May 1- June 30
This Isn’t About Finishing a Speech on Time:
It’s About Finishing the Year With a Bang!

Make earning the Beat the Clock award a club goal and formulate a contest in your club to motivate every member to get involved. Clubs adding five new, dual or reinstated members during these two months receive a Beat the Clock ribbon to display on the club’s banner. The club will also earn a choice of one module from The Better Speaker Series, The Successful Club Series or The Leadership Excellence Series.

Membership applications and payment for members who join between May 1 and June 30 must be received at World Headquarters no later than June 30. Each member’s join date as listed on the application must be no later than June. Transfer and charter members do not count for credit. There is no need to apply for this award. Your club is automatically entered when the first new member application is received in May.
