Start The Decade Off Right!

Is your membership with LRBRA working for you? 

Are you working your membership?

 Business success is about who you know and what you know. 

We are roughly 100 members strong with about 40 builders and remodelers and the rest are support trade professionals. 

DID YOU KNOW? Last year, LRBRA held over 12 membership networking events typically the third Thursday of every month.  We held more than 50 sub-committee meetings - a great way to dive deeper into the membership and team up with others in the association (Golf, Parade of Homes, Scholarships, Finance, Workforce, Sponsorships, Hammers for Vets, Children's Auction and more). The homebuilders hosts the largest home show in the state with many ways for ALL members to get involved even if you don't have a booth.  Our 15th annual golf tournament & fundraiser provided great networking opportunities extending far beyond the course - plan on getting involved this June with your fellow members for an afternoon of laughter, great food, spirit & prizes! We co-chaired a FREE 2-day OSHA training workshop. Our members came to three separate BBQ gatherings, 1 state-wide ski day with other builder members and we held our first Belt Sander races with prizes. We built our third Tiny House with the Huot Tech students representing six area high schools and provided all-day builds where our members could work side by side with the kids, job shadowing and even providing employment opportunities. We awarded educational scholarships to kids furthering their education and we provided  tool belts for students going directly into the trades. We bought some much needed tools for the building construction & HVAC programs at the Huot Tech Center. We provided over $1,500 worth of items for this year's Children's Auction as well as built the auction set and took it down too. We built a ramp for a veteran in need in Laconia and some members were able to help the NH Humane society build a much needed roof to keep dogs dry when outdoors. Our 3-day self-guided Parade of Homes has become a favorite, attracting visitors to gain insight into building trends and excellent opportunity for builders and homebuyers to connect.

WE ARE MADE UP OF BUSINESS PEOPLE LIKE YOU: entrepreneurs, craftsmen, innovators and problem-solvers. We look forward to seeing you this year to meet with other members, to learn and share information and to make the personal contacts that will enhance your business over the new year.

Here's to a Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year!
