It’s a Landscape Ontario Chapter Challenge

The goal is to increase membership as well as retain existing members.
Inspired by Dave Braun, President of Landscape Ontario

Let’s increase membership by 5% across the Province, and in return give back to your Chapter

  • Time line: Mar. 1, 2014—Dec 31. 2014
  • Each Chapter to increase their membership by 5% will be granted $500 to put towards their Chapter.
  • The Chapter to increase and retain their membership by the highest percentage will be granted an additional $500, plus the bragging rights to own Grout the Garden Gnome's cousin for 1 year.
  • A Grand Announcement of your Success at the 2015 A.G.M.
