You may know of the many member benefits LVW dues help fund, but you may not know how valuable your financial support is in promoting a literary presence in our region that encourages all aspects of the written word, both for writers and readers.
1. The Loyalhanna Review is the literary journal published by the Ligonier Valley Writers. It is an ongoing expense but one that is a valuable advocate for regional writers and readers.
2. As this new website continues to develop, it will provide online services for the general public and special features exclusively for members.
3. Ligonier Valley Writers depends on volunteers to maintain the organization, serve on committees, and do other work necessary to keep the organization functioning. If you would like to volunteer, please email a message to the Secretary.
As you can see, yearly dues are critically important to the success of Ligonier Valley Writers. Many thanks for your past and continuing support.
Because we get many messages, if you request an email response please make certain that your email service will accept the reply. This organization is run by volunteers and it is time-consuming for those answering your questions to register at different sites just to get a message to you.
