2012 Membership Drive

Officers & Warrant Officers of the Vermont Army and Air National Guard

Why NGA-VT Membership is Important. State officer membership dues provide nearly $1.8 million annually to support the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) in Washington, D.C. to speak on behalf of 54 States and Territories to present a unified voice before Congress in order to reduce the impact of DoD budget cuts and force structure downsizing that lead to an uncertain future for the National Guard. As a result, we leverage our collective influence to protect and secure benefits, jobs, modern equipment and resources for the Army and Air National Guard.

Visit the NGAUS website at www.ngaus.org/ to review the national level initiatives that support its members.

Making a Difference thru Membership. Becoming a member of the NGA-VT is an easy and voluntary way to make a difference at the national level as we strive to keep our organization strong and support our Vermont service members. Strong State Association membership levels reinforces NGAUS’ mission of maintaining effective dialog with decision makers on Capitol Hill to obtain the National Guard’s fair share of the Defense Budget.

Keys to Membership Success:

  • Unit points of contact work closely with the NGA-VT Membership Director LTC Samuel Gould to track membership progress. The most effective tracking method is for unit POCs at the 06/05 Command to track not more than 25 officers without assistance from subordinate unit(s).
  • Take advantage of early membership payment incentives:
    • 20% off for memberships received by 31 January 2012
    • 10% off for memberships received by 15 March 2012
  • Payment methods:
    • Online Pay Membership, Rates are automatically adjusted per the incentive timeline.
    • Mail check to NGA-VT, PO Box 694, Essex Junction, Vermont 05453

2012 membership rates remain at 2011 levels (State/Federal assessments are due concurrently). See chart below.

Each officer in our great organization has the inherent duty to support your National Guard Association as we work to support you, your unit and your Soldiers and Airmen. Now is the time to take action and pledge your membership to maintain a resourced and ready force.

Sincerely,

Steven J. Lamos
President, NGA-VT
