From the President's Desk
Last month I wrote that GLTPA is organizing a new region 7 which will encompass the entire Lower Peninsula of Michigan. Previously all lower Michigan members were included in Region 6. This is being done to help the GLTPA grow its membership, gain political strength and provide additional representation for the needs of our forest products industry.
