Starting an association of people interested in water gardening where you live is as simple as deciding you'd like to. First, check our International Directory of Clubs and Societies to see if one already exists that meets your needs. If not, read on.

WGI will provide you information and contacts (if available) for your country or region. We will create a web page for you on our site, with your contact information and whatever else you would like to see on your page. Please remember content should be entirely non-commercial. You will be listed in our Directory as a WGI Affiliate, and your meetings and other activities will be included in our Calendar of Events. These services are free of charge.

Your club can be as simple or as complicated as you like. See the Associated Koi Clubs of America (AKCA) for an excellent Club Kit. This kit contains ideas and guidelines for forming a club and can easily be adapted to water gardening. If you are in the US and want to include koi in your club's title and programs, we urge you to join AKCA. 

WGI can adapt its logo for your use or you can create your own. You may use it for any club-related or member web and print material.

We hope you will encourage your future members to join WGI individually so they receive Updates directly and can access the Journals and other Members Only pages. You can send us their addresses or direct them to our Join page.
