Back from Atlanta...
Last week, Tucker Manufacturing Co., Inc. had the pleasure to participate in the 20Th annual IWCA Trade Show and Convention, held in Atlanta, Georgia on February 18-21, 2009. It was a great opportunity to visit with professional window cleaners who make up the organization.
Tucker Manufacturing Co., Inc. is one of the founding members of the association. We have exhibited at each of the 20 trade shows that the IWCA organized.
Today, one of the members of the IWCA, who participated at last week's IWCA Convention forwarded to us a couple of pictures and a short message...
I thought you'd like these photo's of me using my Tucker on a 4 story job.
It's in Iowa City down by the old capitol. It was great to talk w/ you and
Carole in Atlanta. - Tony Evans of Wellman, Iowa
We enjoyed visiting with Tony and his wife, along with the many other professional window cleaners that attended this year's IWCA Trade Show and Convention. Feel free and keep in touch throughout the year.

Further, we had an opportunity to talk to Morley at Waymore Cleaning in Ontario, Canada today. Morley has been a Tucker Pole user for the past ten years. He learned about the Tucker Pole at the Nashville convention of IWCA in 1999. It was back in 1999, where the term "waterfed pole" was coined, when IWCA conducted it's first Tucker Pole, we mean waterfed pole seminar.
Morley reports that first Canadian Conference last weekend in Ontario, Canada "was very good, had about 20 guys" at the event. The organizers of the Canadian Conference are planning to have another event in 2010.
This year's event was at the same time as the IWCA event. But, next year, it sounds like they are planning to host the Canadian Conference in early January (likely a couple of weeks before IWCA) to avoid a schedule conflict. The IWCA 2010 Trade Show and Convention is scheduled for Reno, Nevada on January 27-30, 2010.

Have some news on window cleaning or about how you use your Tucker Pole in your operations? We would love to hear from you.
