To My Beloved Community,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A few months ago, I began thinking about everything that has happened over the course of the past 20 years of my life. In those years, nuCamp has grown tremendously. As we all know, with growth comes change. I have experienced many changes over the last few years, from growing my family and overcoming personal adversity to adapting as the business matured and the economic landscape shifted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It’s astonishing to think in that time span, I got married, graduated from law school, and started a family. Now, two of my children have graduated high school and are finding their own paths in life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s been nearly 17 years since I was presented an opportunity to do some part-time, contract-based marketing work for a small distributor named Little Guy. At the time, they sold a couple dozen trailers a month and operated out of the attic of a used car dealership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As the scope of my work increased, I learned the product, used my analytical skills, and discovered opportunities for improvement. Eventually, I had the privilege to be introduced to an individual outside of the company by the name of Joe Mullet. While he seemed to be entirely different than me, we quickly realized that we shared the same vision for superb products and a heart for people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Since that time, a lot has changed:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
We went from his garage to a 150k+ sq ft facility with 2 other buildings<\/li>\n\n\n\n
We went from Joe being the sole employee to a team that has topped 200.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
We went from building just 1 teardrop a week to over 80.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
We went from exclusively producing Little Guys\u2019 and \u2018Silver Shadows\u2019 to TAGs, three different kinds of TABs, three different kinds of Cirrus truck campers, Barefoot campers \u2014 not to mention, myPods, Cirrus 720s, and AVIAs.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s amazing to look back on our progress with products and buildings, but even more so, the way that the community has grown. I have known some of you since 2007 and others I met at uCamp for the first time this year. No matter the length of time, the fact is, we all started a new season in our lives when we joined this amazing community. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just like there are the beginnings of seasons, there are also endings, and sadly, after a great deal of reflection, prayer, and wise council, I have decided that it is my time to step away from nuCamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Coming to this decision was not easy, especially given everything I have poured into this company over the years. I have had the honor to work and grow alongside people that care genuinely and put others ahead of themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With that, the obvious question to answer is, \u201cWhy?\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There isn\u2019t a concise way to bring clarity to my \u201cwhy\u201d but when I felt a nudge to explore a new path, I began to reflect. I learned years ago not to ignore those nudges, but rather investigate them with discernment, free from bias. I have also learned to trust the peace that surpassed understanding \u2013 and I have peace about this decision, even though it is difficult.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As I look both at the present as well as the future, I can confidently state that nuCamp is poised for continued success:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
The company was founded with the strongest of core values.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
nuCamp has a good name in the marketplace and a tremendous presence online.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
There are new products hitting dealers\u2019 lots and exciting projects in the pipeline.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
I believe that nuCamp has a team that is unmatched anywhere in terms of care: for the product, our processes, and above all, people.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
There is a clear plan, with paced production, that will yield steady financial results.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
In short, the future remains bright for nuCamp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Joe and every one of you. This community is unique, loving, remarkable, and, in a word \u2014 amazing. I will always treasure the friendships and comradery that came with being part of this wonderful organization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It has been my honor and immense pleasure to get to know and serve with you. The experiences and relationships I have built will forever hold a special place in my heart.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
