After 3 1/2 years, we’re sad to say good-bye to our northeast sales rep, Charles Huthmaker. Charles is moving on to Georgia to look after his parents AND start up the North Georgia University rowing program. We wish him and his family well.

And we welcome Brendan Murphy as our new Northeast rep. Fresh off a coaching stint at Marietta College, Brendan joined up in late August and is ready to hit the ground running. We’re excited to have him on-board!
