Ditchmen • NUCA of Florida Ditchmen • December 2017 | Page 13

President’s Message President Jordan Lee, Utility Service Company drive for most of you but I guarantee it will be well worth the trip. Merry Christmas, and Happy Chanukah! Following the Legislative Days, we have the Andrew Scott Johnson Memorial Bass Fishing Tournament. If you haven’t already signed up, you better do it quickly. Rooms are booking fast! As most of you know-this is the funding source for the ASJ Memorial Scholarship that is presented every year at the annual meeting. The Johnson’s are very generous when it comes to giving out scholarships, and is equally generous to donate a portion of the entry fees back to NUCA of Florida. I hope that everyone had a great holiday season. I hope you were all able to spend some time with your families and everyone you hold dear! I hope that your business’s year end was extremely profitable, you have a lot of work already scheduled for 2018, and lastly I hope that you were profitable enough to share some of that wealth with NUCA of Florida! We have begun the Bidding for Benjamin’s campaign to help fund our Political fund. At the end of December, we will see who the leader is-then come January 1st, we’ll reset the score board! It’s never too la te to join in! Speaking of January, we have the NUCA of Florida Legislative Days coming up quickly! I hope you are signed up to join us. It’s always one of the more informative meetings, you’ll get to meet some great people, and we have a lot of fun! I know it’s a 2017 has treated you, your family, and your company very well-and I hope that 2018 is even better! Y’all stay warm and have a great holiday season! Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah everyone! See y’all in 2018! One last thing-chapter ED’s, please look your calendars over and let me know a good time to come visit your chapter! • • • Lastly, comes the annual meeting. We hope that you will join us at The Ocean Reef Club! For many of us, this will be one of the few chances we will ever get at getting into such a nice place. Just a little background on it, Ocean Reef is an exclusive members only community. It is located just north of Key Largo. What a better place than they Keys! In closing, I hope that DECEMBER 2017 • DITCHMEN 13
