NAHB's Membership Committee approved changes to the 2009 Spike Club program—including doubling recruitment of new council members through Dec. 31— to encourage HBA and NAHB recruitment and retention throughout remainder of the year.

The program changes now in effect include:

• Spike Club Spot Awards
  A new Spot Award program was initiated to recognize two high-performing individuals each quarter and reward them with special prizes.
  
  Tasha Soto, of the Home Builders Association of Raleigh-Wake County in North Carolina, received a Spot Award for recruiting the most new members in the federation during each month during the first quarter of the year. She earned a luxury spa getaway at Hilton Head, S.C.
  
  
• Spike Hero Ribbons
  Spike Hero Ribbons denoting outstanding year-to-date recruitment will be awarded quarterly by local HBAs for members who have earned six, 10 and 20 credits this year. The hero ribbons will be sent to individual HBAs so heroes can be recognized locally.
  
  
• Fall Double Credit Recruitment Campaign
  Beginning in September, NAHB will host a three-month recruitment drive for HBAs that will award double credits, recruiter prizes and assign competitors. Details will be announced later this year.
