District 7390 Awards
 
2023-2024 Best Club Awards
The purpose of the District 7390 “Best Club” Awards is to encourage Clubs to aggressively pursue excellence through friendly competition with like sized clubs.
 
To encourage participation there are 6 Club size categories, based upon the membership reported on the June 30, 2023 Semi-Annual Report. The Club’s category will not change throughout the Rotary year even if its membership rises or declines. Any new Clubs will be assigned based upon the number of charter members. The 2023-2024 categories are:
            Extra Small                   Less than 15 members
            Small                           16 to 25 members
            Medium                        26 to 35 members
            Large                           36 to 45 members
            Extra Large                   46 to 85 members

District 7390 Outstanding Service Award
This award was developed to recognize a Rotarian in the District that has served in a District leadership role or done dynamic, innovative work on a District Committee for three or more years. Their leadership can have been as Lane Chair/Counselor, Committee Chair, Assistant Governor, Area Foundation Coordinator, Area Membership Coordinator, or as a particularly outstanding committee or sub-committee member. The Rotarian must have crafted or contributed to a well-developed strategy (ends, ways, and means) to achieve particular District goals. In the view of the DG and DLT the Rotarian must have achieved these goals thus making D7390 a stronger, better District in line with the District vision, mission and RI goals. ​The nominee cannot be a member of the current DLT. The award will be determined by the DG with the advice and counsel of the DLT (DG, IPDG, DGE, DGN and DGND). This award can only be given to one person per year and will be presented at the District Conference. 
 
District 7390 Buzz Coho Lifetime Achievement Award
This award was developed to honor long-time D7390 Rotarian Ralph W. (Buzz) Coho. To receive this award, you must be a member of Rotary for at least 25 years and demonstrate effective work at the Club, District, and possibly zone/RI levels (not required but a plus). The award will be determined by the DG with the advice and counsel of the DLT (DG, IPDG, DGE, DGN and DGND). This award can only be given to one person per year and each awardee may only receive it one time. 
 
District 7390 Dogged Pursuit Award
The District 7390 dogged pursuit award was invented by PDG John Judson in 2014-15 to recognize Rotarians who are so passionate about their Rotary duties that they “doggedly pursue” you to grow attendance or get people involved.
