DISTRICT BUCKS INCENTIVES

Questions and Answers

  What are District Bucks?

District Bucks is an account that the district runs for your club. Every time the club wins an incentive, the money goes into the club’s District Bucks account. This system will allow you to make bigger purchases than you could before.

Why did we need to create it?

Before the Pandemic, money awards would be used to help pay for food and other meeting expenses. Now, in-person meetings are no longer possible, but we still want to encourage open houses, club excellence and club growth with awards.

What can clubs buy?

Anything that helps the club mission and promote the club’s growth. Such as, Projectors, cameras, microphones, ribbons, pins, and other items the club needs to conduct business.

What can they not buy?

Alcohol.

How do they redeem district bucks?

When the club buys an item, they submit the expense receipt to the District Finance Director. The item cost must be equal or less than the money accumulated in the club’s District Bucks account.

How long do bucks last?

Throughout the year but before May 1, 2021.

How can I check how many bucks I’ve earned?

A spreadsheet will be available on the D58 website for all club members.

Shooting Star Award – 10/1/2020 – 4/01/2021 


All new members who have been a member for 12 months or less, complete at least 6 Pathways speeches, attend a TLI Training and demonstrate leadership skills in the club (per VPE)will be recognized during the District Conference. This is an award, not bucks.

Triple Crown Award

The Triple Crown Award is awarded to any District 58 Toastmaster member who earns three or more educational awards between July 1, 2020 and May 1, 2021. Two (2) of those awards can be any Path, any level. The third award must be Level 3 or higher.  See if you’ve earned your award here.

Award recipients will be recognized at District events such as the monthly District Executive Committee Meeting, Toastmasters Leadership Institute (TLI), our Annual Conference and our Hall of Fame Awards Luncheon. If you are not present at any of these events to be recognized, your award will be distributed to you by an Area Director when they visit your club.

There will be a drawing for a special prize for all Triple Crown Award winners  before May 1, 2021 at the Annual Conference.  This drawing will consist of a Toastmasters backpack filled with Toastmasters items (value A $100.00 or more.)
