1. New Owners, Same Spirit
As most of you know, Kathy Harrington and I (Darryl
Calkins) recently became
the new owners of Linden Educational Services. We have
worked closely with
Linda Heaney over the past 13 months to make certain
that new leadership
would result in a continuation of the same level of
professional and high
quality service that Linda and Linden have provided
for the last 24 years.
We are both excited about this new chapter in our lives
and about continuing
the many relationships developed through Linden –
and to making many more.
We are also very pleased to announce that Linda has
agreed to continue her
relationship with Linden as a project manager and consultant.
Specifically
Linda has agreed to coordinate the Art&Design Tours
this spring and fall and
to organize the Washington Program this spring. We appreciate
very much the
knowledge and spirit that Linda has brought, and continues
to bring, to the
company, and feel fortunate that she plans to stay involved.
