Don't forget to renew your membership or become an Irontown member! Pioneer Days would not be possible without revenue from our members! Irontown members needed The Pioneer Days and Heikki Lunta celebrations are popular events, celebrations that Negaunee residents and alumni look forward to each year. To help support this event, individuals are asked to become members of the Negaunee Irontown Association. This year, membership cost is $30, and members receive a card with special offers. “For the size of Negaunee, we need an increased membership base to meet the rising costs associated with these events, particularly the fireworks displays over Teal Lake, we have an aggressive Board that will continue to seek new members, but we encourage residents of Negaunee and Marquette County to get behind the association and support our endeavors through a simple $30 membership fee,” said Don Gladwell, President of the Association. More than twenty businesses have offered discounts and incentives on the membership card. Becoming a member of Irontown is quite simple. Membership requires just a $30 annual fee. All members receive a membership card, entitling them to discounts at area businesses and a bi-annual newsletter. Members do not need to live, work or have graduated from Negaunee to become members. Most importantly, membership does not require any meeting commitments.
