“MEMBER GET A
MEMBER CAMPAIGN”
Membership in the
Louisiana Beekeepers Association (LBA) is a privilege,
but more importantly, an obligation. Louisiana
beekeepers can only help themselves and their industry
by participating in dialogue that sets our state’s
beekeeping policies. Anchored in a rich tradition of
service, the LBA has always promoted a healthy,
productive beekeeping industry. This can only be done
through a strong state beekeeping organization. To
accomplish this we need the help of more beekeepers. Our
current membership consists of less than 50% of the
state’s registered beekeepers. That has got to change if
we are to remain a voice for Louisiana beekeepers.
You
can help us and help yourself by joining the LBA today.
More importantly you can recruit other beekeepers into
joining the LBA. To help increase our membership we have
launched a “MEMBER GET A MEMBER CAMPAIGN.” Simply talk
to fellow beekeepers about their participation in their
state beekeeping association through membership. In
turn, ask their assistance and support in recruiting
other LBA members.
Our membership application contains a referral blank to
be used to list the member that inspired a new member to
join the LBA. An award awaits three individuals ( 1st.
2nd. and 3rd. place) that bring
in the most new members in 2012. The award will be
presented at our annual convention, which will be held
in the
Shreveport area the first weekend in
December. Contact any officer or board member if you
need more information on promoting membership in the
LBA.
Thank you for your
support,
Robert G.
