Growth Award (1991-2016)
The Growth Award is given to the chapter that reports the largest growth in membership over the preceding year. The winner receives a framed certificate signed by the national president and national secretary. In 1993 the award was expanded to differentiate between the chapter with the largest numerical increase and the chapter with the largest percentage increase.
Beginning in 2007, awards were given to chapters who had initiated 10-19 men, 20-29 men, 30-39 men, and 40 or more men.
