Is membership in the Florida Attractions Association right for me?
Membership in the Florida Attractions Association is not for everyone. Once businesses join, they tend to remain members a long time. In fact many of the FAA’s founding members have remained members for 60 years!
The first consideration if you are considering membership is determining if your business fits one of the three Attraction Member categories or one of the three Associate membership categories. If you need assistance, the Florida Attractions Association staff would be happy to help you determine if you meet membership criteria.
Another important determination is whether your business can commit to the Association’s Code of Practices. While Associate members don’t have a Code of Practices, per se, they should be interested in aligning with an industry group committed to the highest standards of quality.
Why should I join the Florida Attractions Association?
If you believe your business is a good fit with the Florida Attractions Association, then you should consider membership. Members of the Florida Attractions Association receive the highest quality of support from our Tallahassee-based staff. Our volunteer Board of Directors is active and engaged in governance of the Association, directed by a focused strategic plan.
