Inventory[]
According to Toastmasters International policy, each club must maintain a written list of its assets and a written process to ensure that the assets are accounted for and transferred smoothly to future club officers. The Sergeant at Arms may keep this list current as part of maintaining the club’s equipment and supplies. If keeping a written list poses difficulties, ask the club Secretary to help.
