Dear Skålleagues,
 
I hope 2022 has started off well for everyone!
 
One of the annual highlights for Skål USA is honoring the Club of the Year.
 
The Club of the Year award exemplifies the spirit of Skål and the objectives of our organization.
 
If your club meets the qualifications outlined below, please submit your club’s name for this honor.
 
Initial applications must be submitted to the Skål USA Administrator by March 31st.
 
Criteria includes:
-Paying Annual Dues on time.
-Completing the Skål USA Club Data form as was previously communicated.
-Attending the previous year’s AGM.
-Having a net increase of 5% or 5 members whichever is greater, between January 1st and December 31st of 2021.
-Establish and support a new or ongoing educational or charitable event or organization.
 
While past submissions from some clubs have included videos or PowerPoint presentations, please do not submit a video or PowerPoint presentation with your initial application.
 
This type of enhancement can be added after your club is notified that its submission of the above criteria has been verified and accepted by the Skål USA Club of the Year Committee.
 
Full details are listed in the MOI on Page 28.
 
The award, including a $1,000 prize, will be presented at the Annual General Meeting in Orlando on May 14th.
