:turkey:Thank You,
I wanted to take a moment and thank everyone in the Mid-Atlantic region who has chosen to do business with us over the past two years since we opened.
Thanksgiving is a special time to reflect on what you have been blessed with. Family, friends, good health, a job, the means to get by and the ability to enjoy life to the fullest. For us it is the blessing of you, our customers... and we thank you for that blessing.
As dive store owners, or for that matter, as people in general, we often spend a lot of time bickering and moaning and groaning about this or that (it happens a lot on this board)... but we must at some point, for the betterment of ourselves and for our existence as humanity, lay down our differences and find solutions to common problems.
Our Scuba industry is struggling, a small microcosm of the bigger picture in our country. The industry is struggling because you, our friends (divers and fellow dive store owners) are struggling, some more than others, yet you continue to follow your dreams and pursue your passions. The ability to do so is a blessing.
As we go forward into 2010, I look forward to working with any one or all of you in making diving as affordable as possible for everyone. This is how we can best show our thanks to you.
Happy Thanksgiving... and Best Wishes for Quality Time with Family.
