Chapter Membership for 2024
There are two membership renewals each year – this is your Thompson Okanagan Chapter Membership and it is different from the LGMA Provincial Membership. Your Thompson Okanagan Chapter Membership provides access to a grassroots network and opportunities for training close to home where you can meet and connect with colleagues from local governments in your region. As a service to your local chapter, LGMA provides support in collecting fees and maintaining the membership database.
Your Thompson Okanagan LGMA Chapter Membership is an important way to stay connected with local government colleagues in your area.
