GLDA By-Laws

January 10, 2010

Dear Current Members:
Thank you for making the GLDA such a success in 2009. We are anxious to get started on the upcoming 2010 events. Please go to the website www.glda.org and fill out your 2010 application. The annual fee of $25.00 is due by January 31, 2010. The cost for membership after February 1, 2010, will be $35.00 to everyone except those new to the industry. Only those new to the industry will qualify (members in good standing) for scholarships if paying dues after January 31, 2010.

All GLDA members in good standing and their families will be eligible to apply for scholarships awarded by the GLDA in June 2010. In 2009 we awarded $12,000 in scholarships! Also, members will receive reservation emailing and discounted fees for events.

This association exists for the benefit of you, the members, and we need your ideas and help to be successful. Again, we would like to hear from you, so please contact any board member with ideas you may have or there is a link on the website for any general questions.

As new distribution personnel continue to join our industry we would like for them to be a part of our organization. I look forward to welcoming all of you at the events during 2010. Here are a few of the up-coming events:
