Invitation to Join
A Message from MIA President GK Naquin

As MIA's 2011 president, I want to take this opportunity to personally invite you to become a member of our association. Membership in the Marble Institute of America is your connection to the world's largest dimension stone market. It is a source for access, networking, technical support, promotion and referrals to the natural stone industry. On a larger scale, it is an investment in leadership development for you and your staff!

Whether you are a relatively new stone company or one that has been operating for several generations, membership in the MIA can benefit your company. No one can speak about the value of membership better than your industry peers. As you review the benefits of becoming an MIA member (see quick links section), you will hear and read about some of the companies that have benefited the most from MIA membership.

Specific to my company (Stone Interiors), we have facilities in Alabama, Louisiana, and South Carolina. We have greatly benefited from education; networking; publicity received from winning an MIA awards; and, being accredited. I can also not say enough good things about the technical support offered by the staff and through the technical publications.

That's only the surface of how you can benefit from being a member of the Marble Institute of America. Join us today!

Sincerely,

G.K. Naquin, President
Stone Interiors
2011 President, MIA Board of Directors
