Your LGA President Brian Goldsworthy is taking over this committee from Tony Moran who admirably served as the Chair for many, many years.  Brian always loves a challenge and his main goal is to grow the membership to make it even better and stronger for all.   

Membership and Marketing is unique in that the committee doesn’t offer a direct service to the membership.  However, this committee is the financial engine that enables the LGA to offer our many programs supporting ALL lake-related activities.   Our member dues support the Shred Event, Lake Environment, and Water Quality activities, as well as the Five-County Forum, just to name a few. 

Without member dues we offer nothing - Can’t be more blunt than that.  We also need the support of our business members who provide the financial horsepower to keep the LGA running.

You too can help make a difference - Consider joining the LGA today!  

Many of our members are aware of the many LGA activities during the active summer season. But did you know that this is the time of the year that we are involved with many of our important programs?

Through our partnerships with our local sheriff's departments, our members are kept up to date on crime statistics and prevention measures.

We partner with local realtor members who keep us posted on lake area property sales and values.

How about our partnership with N.C. State University’s Crop Science Dept. which assists with Lake Gaston’s aquatic Fall Lake Survey, finding solutions for invasive aquatic plants, like Lyngbya and Hydrilla, as well as participates in our Lakeside Learning Days.

Finally, let’s not forget our partnership with Dominion Energy and the US Army Corps of Engineers who keep our members up to date on water level conditions especially during hurricane season.

I am sure we can think of other examples. Unfortunately, our efforts are not always known to non-members who may be unaware of the many benefits of being an LGA member and that is where you can help. Promote the LGA whenever you can and sponsor new members. Call Moira at (252) 586-6577 for details.

We are proud to count many local businesses among our membership. We encourage all of our web site viewers to support these businesses by utilizing their services whenever possible. For a complete list of LGA Business Members - click here.

By this time of the year most, if not all, of the Marketing & Membership Committee recruiting programs have been completed.

Beginning in September we depend on our membership to sponsor new members who can enjoy the benefits of LGA membership for the rest of 2018 and all of 2019. In addition, both will get a $5.00 reduction in their dues. It's easy. For more details call Moira Underwood at (252) 586-6577.

Have some ideas that can help us reach our membership goals? Come to one of our monthly committee meetings.
