Eastern Ridge Home Builders Association
The Home Builders Association of Fond du Lac and Dodge Counties has expanded to include Green Lake County. There are 22 Homebuilders Associations in Wisconsin and Green Lake County wasn’t part of any of them. Earlier this year officials with the Home Builders Association of Fond du Lac and Dodge Counties asked the National Association for permission to include the Green Lake County territory and was granted permission. But they had a problem; coming up with a shorter name that would encompass all three counties. Amanda Kemmel is the Executive Officer of what is now known as the Eastern Ridge Home Builders Association. She says the name reflects a characteristic all three counties share. Fond du Lac County is part of the Niagara Escarpment or ledge, Dodge County has Iron Ridge, and Green Lake County is the eastern ridge in the ledge region. They also came up with a new logo. The logo is a 3-D representation of all three counties that looks like a building with a roof. The new name and expanded association went into effect on August 1st.
