What is the EGG?
The EGG is the Elusive Gilded Gavel of District 6. It is an elaborate, oversized, ceremonial gavel. The EGG is a traveling trophy that encourages Toastmasters to visit other clubs. The EGG was not in circulation during the early pandemic years. Its glorious return launched in August 2025 with a successful capture by Hutchinson Toastmasters II.

Who has the EGG now?
Success Masters is the current home of the EGG. They poached it from TechMasters on November 18. Success Masters meets online on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month at 12:10 PM. You can find more information at https://successmasters.toastmastersclubs.org/

Fun EGG Facts
How often has the EGG changed hands? 2011 was the most active year, with 17 captures!

Why do we want the EGG? First of all, the fame and glory of being the EGG holders. Scrambling to capture the EGG is a great team building exercise. Meeting the members of the club that holds the EGG and sharing their meeting experience. Finally, once you have the EGG other clubs will want to visit you!

How can we poach the EGG?
It’s easy! Discover which club currently has the EGG. Gather your group of EGG raiders and notify the club a few days in advance to expect your visit (you may need arrangements to get through security). Scramble your team, arrive on time, and stay for the whole meeting. If your club captures the EGG, take a picture to commemorate the event, and write a story about your EGGscursion. Did I mention that EGG puns are encouraged? They are.

Can clubs that meet online capture the EGG? Yes! In the summer of 2025, Deb Luu led a group (Marvel Kummer, Karrie Krear, Erik Biever) to review and revise the EGG rules. Online clubs that capture the EGG get a distinctive background they can display during their meetings, proudly proclaiming their status.
