The simple fact is the Negaunee Irontown Association, a non-profit group consisting of 12 active board members, needs your support in order to be a major player in sponsoring the aforementioned events.
Becoming a member of Irontown is quite simple. Membership requires just a $30 annual fee. All members receive a membership card, entitling them to many discounts and special offers at Negaunee 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.
“The Pioneer Days and Heikki Lunta celebrations are popular events, celebrations that Negaunee residents and alumni look forward to each year,” president Kimme Peterson said. “Yet, as we look at our membership and budget, it is obvious to our board members that in order to help fund these types of events annually and pay for rising insurance costs, we need to increase our membership.
“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,” he added. “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.”
Those interested in becoming a member can send a check or money order to Negaunee Irontown Association, P.O. Box 128, Negaunee, MI 49866.
