IMO under new management!

Postby Scott McCrea » Jan 3, 2006 12:05 pm

If you go here: http://www.caves.org/imo/frames1.htm

You'll see a graphic that says, "Big News from IMO." Click on it and a PDF loads up that says, Alex is retireing and Jeff and Nina Martin of GA are taking over.

Truely the end of an era. Alex will be missed. Congrats on the retirement tho! :bow:

Congrats to the Martin's too! Should be a fun job. :patriotic2:

I emailed IMO about that. Since 1993 I've sent quite a few $ there! Glad to see Alex & Dru able to spend time with family and travel.

I've known the Martin's for 10 + years. They are good people. :kaver: Nina has been vendor chair person for TAG Fall Cave-In for a number of years. Now she will get to experience the other side of it.

They announced their new business at the Dogwood City Grotto New Year's Eve party. Alex is working with them to make the transition as smooth as possible. :-)

Congratulations to Alex and Congratulations to Jeff & Nina

IMO rocks!!!! :rock band:

Hey Alex..........I know you are busy now, but when the transition is over and you get ready to go caving, remember us in TAG. We are not far off and have plenty of OFC's!

Nina......you go girl! I wish you and Jeff the best! Luv ya both!

I've known Alex since 1973 (scary thought) and Dru since 1993 or so. Good luck to Alex, Dru and the new owners. May Jeff and Nina dispense wisdom and humor along with their equipment as Alex and Dru always have.
