The Strength of Our Association
By Jonzi Guill, Executive Director, Carolina Loggers Association
As we move into the third quarter of the year, there are encouraging signs across our industry. Fuel prices have eased from the highs we’ve experienced over the past year, providing some welcome relief for logging businesses that continue to manage rising costs in nearly every other area of operation. While we all know markets can change quickly, any savings at the fuel pump are good news for our members.
In Raleigh, the North Carolina General Assembly continues working through budget negotiations and transportation funding priorities as the legislative session moves toward adjournment. The Carolina Loggers Association remains engaged, monitoring legislation and regulatory issues that could impact our industry. We’ll continue to keep you informed and represent the interests of North Carolina’s professional loggers as these discussions move forward.
Our association exists because of the support of people who believe in the future of forestry and logging. I want to extend a sincere thank you to our corporate sponsors, advertisers, and contributors who invest their time and resources to help make our programs, educational efforts, and advocacy possible. Your partnership strengthens our industry and helps us better serve our members throughout the year.
Membership is the foundation of a strong association. If you know a logger, truck owner, forester, supplier, or industry professional who isn’t yet a member of the Carolina Loggers Association, I encourage you to invite them to join. Every new member adds another voice for our industry and strengthens our ability to advocate for the businesses and families who depend on forestry in North Carolina.
Thank you for your continued support of the Carolina Loggers Association. We appreciate the opportunity to serve you and look forward to seeing many of you at our upcoming events. Until then, stay safe, work smart, and thank you for all you do to keep our forests working for future generations.
Jonzi Guill,
Executive Director
Carolina Loggers Association
