The American Lumberjack Association is an Association rich in tradition and history. The American Lumberjack Association,
herein referred to as the A.L.A., is a group of sportsmen and women dedicated to furthering, upgrading and standardizing lumberjack
sports. The Association is a sanctioning body which sets up rules governing sanctioned shows and competitors; maintains equipment;
keeps records; mails regular newsletters to membership and holds two annual meetings. The
A.L.A. board (click for email addresses)consists of four officers and four board members.
Each sanctioned show has its own management
and is run to suit the locality in which it is held. The
A.L.A. provides the rules which accounts for consistency and uniformity for both competitors and sanctioned shows. The rules raise the standards of
lumberjack sports so they will rank among the foremost of American sports, provide guidelines to maintain cooperation between
management and competitors of all sanctioned shows and also protect members.
The A.L.A. currently has over 250 members!
We have several categories of membership from an associate member who receives mailings only, to an annual member who is included
in points, rankings, votes at annual meetings, a rulebook and much, much, more. For information about how you can become a
member of the A.L.A. look at info below for email and mailing address or contact one of the board members!!
