    The District 53 Club Coaches Roundtable meet every month throughout the year. We bring on new coaches, update progress with existing coaches, and exchange ideas on how to best motivate and educate Clubs and their members to achieve Distinguished status. Serving as a Club Coach is an option for credit towards the Distinguished Toastmaster Award, and a terrific Leadership role. Become part of this highly motivated team of seasoned members, and ask to be assigned a Club that needs your help.
