How to Start a New Club

To start a new club, follow these five steps:
- Find at least 20 people over the age of 18 who want to join.
- Designate and secure a meeting location.
- Fill out and submit the requisite new club forms to World Headquarters.
- Contact a District 84 Representative for help.
- Download a copy of How to Build a Toastmasters Club, a step-by-step guide to growing a successful club.
Applicable Fees:
- 125: One-time chartering fee
- 20: New-member fee per person
- 45: Six months’ membership dues per person
- Additional dues: Clubs may also charge supplementary club dues to cover expenses.
