Sertoma clubs across North America make a lasting difference through community involvement leadership, stewardship and a commitment to Service to Mankind. Each fall, Sertoma is privileged to celebrate that work and highlight clubs that demonstrate excellence throughout the year with our Club Pinnacle Awards program.

The Club Pinnacle Awards were created by Sertomans to recognize achievements in key areas including service, membership, leadership, education and more. Clubs that meet program requirements can earn Bronze or Silver-level recognition, with Silver-level clubs also eligible for consideration for the Gold Club of the Year award.

This year’s awards were presented at the 2026 International Conference in Las Vegas on September 26. Competition for the Gold Club of the Year Award was exceptionally close, so the judges and staff made the decision to honor two outstanding clubs with Sertoma’s highest achievement at the club level.

Gold
Gleneagle Sertoma Club (Colorado)
Queen City Sertoma Club (Missouri)

Silver
Hickory-Palos Sertoma Club (Illinois)
Sertoma Club of Springfield, Illinois (Illinois)

Bronze 
Hearts-n-Hands Sertoma Club (Pennsylvania)
James E. Shepard Sertoma Club (North Carolina)
Roswell Sertoma Club (New Mexico)
Topeka Heartland Sertoma Club (Kansas)
Topeka Evening Sertoma Club (Kansas)

Congratulations to all of this year’s Club Pinnacle Award recipients! Your dedication to service, your communities and the mission of Sertoma makes a lasting difference.

Award applications for 2027 will reopen next spring/summer. Be sure to watch Sertoma’s communication channels for announcements and additional information about next year’s awards.
