Our Mission:

The La Crosse County Tavern League is a non-profit trade association dedicated to serving the needs of the retail beverage alcohol segment of the hospitality industry in La Crosse, Wisconsin.

We exist to provide services to members that are not available to them as individuals and to use the collective strength of its membership to accomplish, as a group, goals that cannot be accomplished alone.

LCTL provides their members with services such as legislative and governmental relations, legal information, educational services and promotes the industry on behalf of its membership.

Mike Brown - President of the LaCrosse County Tavern League

CODE OF ETHICS

• LCTL believes in taking good care of our customers and protecting against the effects of alcohol abuse. We want our customers to have a good time and we are interested in their well-being.

• We reserve the right to refuse service to persons we believe are intoxicated. Friends don't let friends drive intoxicated. We want to be your friend and make sure you get home safely.

• We will not encourage excessive drinking. You count with us. May we count on you to have a soft drink, coffee or non-alcohol beverage when you feel you may have had too much to drink? We want you to be able to come back again.

• We want you to get home safely. If you need a ride, we will try to arrange safe transportation home. We hope you will consider doing the same for your friends.

• We will not knowingly serve an underage person not accompanied by a parent or a legal guardian and will check age identification when in doubt. We ask for your cooperation.

• We will not encourage or permit alcohol consumption contests on our premises.

• We will keep ourselves informed, and encourage all of our customers to help us enforce the alcohol beverage laws, practice responsible drinking and good citizenship.
