Basic Information
What is my club rating?
The club rating system is used within Texas Garden Clubs, Inc. --it is not recognized by National Garden Clubs. Club ratings measure the quantity and quality of a club’s projects and activities.
There are only two requirements for garden clubs to be members of Texas Garden Clubs, Inc.:
1. Hold regular meetings
2. Pay state dues
Green and Bronze rated clubs do not have to make a special application for their respective ratings.
A Green club has no special requirements beyond TGC membership.
A Bronze club must hold at least seven programs annually; have one authoritative speaker annually; publish a yearbook; have bylaws; and have annual informative display open to guests.
To be a Silver or Gold rated club, the club must meet the requirements set forth in the TGC Awards Brochure 2007 (revised 2010) and make application every year.
