Eric interviews Craig McBride and Ana Arntsonfrom the Pond Professionals Alliance (PPA). They discuss the organization's recent successes, highlighting a large-scale swim pond build at an expo and thanking the numerous sponsors and manufacturers who donated products and support. The conversation then shifts to the challenges the PPA faces, particularly administrative overwhelm and the need for more member and manufacturer support as they grow internationally. Finally, they outline their future vision for the PPA, which includes expanding global reach, developing training and recognition programs, and actively engaging with legislation affecting the industry, and they promote an upcoming summer retreat designed to foster peer connection and professional development.
