The Golden Community Awards
The Golden Community Awards, commonly abbreviated as 'GCAs', are The SpongeBob Community's official awards, originally held on a tri-monthly basis. The GCAs are the merged version of The Spin-Off Awards and The Member Awards, both of which previously were independent awards. The awards were created by Clappy, although he never hosted any. They are also a forum located under The SpongeBob Community Events, where you can find the topics. They used to be held yearly, then were held twice a year. However, as of 2018, it was decided to make them yearly again so they would be more special.
