Membership & Volunteer Engagement

Enhance the general public’s knowledge of the LGA

Formerly known as the Membership and Marketing Committee, a recent rebranding delegated the marketing aspect to a different committee so we could focus on growing the membership and engaging our members to take a more active role in supporting our programs. We experience about a 10% non-renewal rate each year. Some have left the area, some have aged out, but we feel others have lost interest. Thus, going forward, we continue to look for ways for our members to want to stay involved. Membership dues fund the programs, but a 12-member board of directors can’t do all the work necessary. The purpose of the M&VE is to retain, grow, and engage our membership so we develop a pool of active volunteers.

 

We accomplish this by:

- Keeping an active presence on social media and our website

- Participating in local activities to further LGA presence such as the Quality Water Awareness

     Campaign (QWAC) and the Littleton-Lake Gaston Festival

- Recruiting new members, including businesses and visitors

- Monitoring our membership to retain and recruit others

- Educating and mentoring our new members

- Business Memberships

 

We are proud to count many local businesses among our membership. We encourage all of our website viewers to support these businesses by utilizing their services whenever possible. For a complete list of LGA

The committee normally meets the third Thursday of each month at 8:30 AM at the Chamber of Commerce office next to the Subway restaurant on Eaton Ferry Road. All are welcome to sit in and listen.
