Georgia woodworkers may join the Gwinnett Woodworkers Association or renew your membership using Paypal (or paying by check) via this online membership sign-up form .  If you would prefer using the old method - please fill out a membership form.  You may download and print this form in PDF format.  The form may be mailed along with your membership fee to the address below or you may bring the form and payment to any meeting and presented to any member of the Board of Directors.

Business Address:

The GWA website now has an automated event reminder email system.  Every week (currently Tuesday) the website emails a list of coming classes to those people who have subscribed to this email.

Here's how to get on the list.

• Sign in to the GWA website using the Member Login (Members Only) If you are not already registered you will need to complete the registration and approval process first.
• Find the GWA Event Mailer on the left side of the home page.
• Click on the provided 'Subscribe' link.  If it only says 'unsubscribe' then you are already subscribed and you can use this link to unsubscribe.

In order to stay in touch with our GWA Friends we invite you to subscribe to our GWA Friends email list.  We send news and information to our members via a members email list.  Some of that information we would like to share with our wider circle of woodworking friends.  So if you would like to keep up with GWA activities we invite you to subscribe using the link above.  Each email will include an unsubscribe link should you decide you need it later.

Rules for Use - GWA Exchange Forum

The GWA Exchange Forum is operated by the Gwinnett Woodworkers Association as a service for our members.  Most forum categories will be available to the public.  This means that any web site visitor will be able to read the forum posts.  However, only GWA members in good standing will be able to post messages in most forum categories.  To be recognized as a GWA member you will need to register and/or sign in to the GWA web site .  NOTE: Only currently paid up GWA members are allowed to register on the GWA web site.

The rules for operating the forum are ultimately set up and managed by the GWA Board of Directors.

Unless noted all forum posts will be moderated.  This means that objectionable posts will be removed completely from the system.  Forum posters should refrain from posting objectionable language, pictures, and files.  As the need arises these rules will be amended with necessary examples of what is considered objectionable.

If you have any question about these rules or use of the GWA Exchange Forum please contact a current member of the GWA Board of Directors.

The Gwinnett Woodworkers Association web site now allows members to register and maintain their own profile.  If you are not a current member of the Gwinnett Woodworkers Association your registration will not be accepted.  Non-members are encouraged to subscribe to our "Friends of GWA" News list where you will receive occasional GWA and related news.

For GWA members, here's how the registration process works.

In the GWA Members section below the main menu, click on the word 'Register' where it says "No account yet? Register".

You will be asked for a username and password.  You will need to make up your own username and password.  These will not be chosen for you.  We can change and/or reset them, but we won't know what your password is unless you tell someone.  Please try to select a secure password.  Here is a link that explains some suggestions on selecting secure passwords.

Fill out the required profile items.

Once done with your initial profile items (you can edit this later), you will save your profile.  Shortly thereafter you will get an email at the address you provided.  You will need to click on the link in that email to confirm that this was indeed your correct email address.  If you don't see an email you might need to check your spam folders.

Once you've clicked on the link in that email your web site registration will almost be done.  Our webmaster will review and approve your registration.  Once approved you will have access to the web site's content for registered users.

If you have any questions, please contact the webmaster.
