Rotary Club Wooden Plaques

Rotary Clubs have successfully used wooden plaques to both recognize accomplishments as well as gain recognition for their Clubs.

Available in all the standard sizes, our laser engraved plaques will be proudly displayed by the recipient.

Shown in the lower left is our popular Bamboo plaque, directly above it is our Rosewood plaque with engraved metal plate. Then our Alder plaque with Walnut Trim in the upper right and in the center is our Alder plaque. Finally in the lower right is our solid Walnut plaque with gold colored fill.

You may choose one of our stock plaques and simply provide the recipient's name and the name of the Rotary Club and date or we can fully customize the plaque for you etching in the text and images you provide.

Getting exposure for your Rotary Club

One of the best methods of growing your Rotary Club membership is to make your community aware that you are there and what your Rotary Club does. A fun and rewarding method of doing this is with a Community Award Program.

Examples of possible Community Award Programs include:
Teacher of the month, semester, or year
Student of the month, semester, or year
Policeman of the month, quarter, or year
Fireman of the month, quarter, or year
Citizen of the month, quarter, or year
Business of the month, quarter, or year
Athlete of the month, quarter, or year
Business Person of the month, quarter, or year

Choose an area or two of interest to your Rotary Club and talk with the related organizations develop the criteria to be used for selecting the recipient. This may range from your Club establishing the specific criteria to letting the organization determine the criteria. For those Clubs wanting hands on involvement, have the organizations submit several recommendations of recipients for your Club to select from. For those Clubs wanting less direct involvement simply have the organization make the selection.

Present the award either at one of your regular Rotary Club meetings or have a group of your Club members go to the recipient for the presentation. Make sure to take pictures of the presentation. Send a copy of the pictures and a few words describing the presentation to your local paper. In addition publish the photo and text to the Internet as part of your Rotary Club's website, Facebook update, or blog update. If your Club doesn't have a web presence yet, consider starting one.

Rotary Club Name Badges

Name badges are an important fixture in every Rotary Club. Name badges help place visitors at ease and help members relate to each other in larger Clubs.

MyClubSupply.com offers several styles and formats of name badges including full color metal, plastic, and wooden. All come standard with the magnetic clasp which is easier on clothing. Pin backed name badges are also available for those not wishing to use the magnetic clasps.

Speaker's Gifts

Speaker's gifts not only serve as a Thank Your for the speaker, but can help to promote your Rotary Club within the community.

Each time the recipient uses the gift they are reminded of your Club. In the case of our paperweights and coffee mugs, visitors to the Speaker's office will be reminded of your Club. Items used on a daily basis, like our engraved maple pens, benefit from the Speaker using them in outside the office environment thus spreading word of your Club to the community at large.
