Can you believe we’re already approaching the holiday season? It seems like just yesterday I was writing about the opportunities that 2016 presented for Induron.

Induron’s Annual Sales Meeting: A Good Time with Great People
By: Davies Hood, Induron President
Last week I had the pleasure of hosting the Induron Sales Team at our annual Sales Meeting. This year’s event was held at the beautiful Pursell Farms near Childersburg, AL. Our Team spent two nights together under one roof at the “Man’s World-esque” Parker Lodge. I describe this lodge as ‘Man’s World’ because of the Mountain Lodge décor, which includes a Moose-Head above the mantel, a game room complete with billiard, ping-pong and foosball tables, a patio with a fire pit and cigar ashtray overlooking the 17th green, a large dining area where we enjoyed a filet mignon prepared in-house, AND a modern meeting room featuring leather chairs and two entire walls of windows as well as modern A/V!

Story of this Photo: Proud BBB Member
By: David Hood, Induron CEO
My mother was a Virginian. Her parents lived in Roanoke, and we visited them many times when I was young and my mother was still alive. Because they were very proud Virginians, I was exposed to the history of that state at every opportunity. I, of course, was fascinated by the 18th-century life that was so revered and displayed around Virginia in the 1940’s and 1950’s. If you asked Virginians, Virginia was THE founding State of The United States of America. And in many ways, they were correct. Continue reading Story of this Photo: Proud BBB Member

Induron Sponsors MDA Toast to Strength Gala

Induron is proud to sponsor and excited to attend the MDA Toast to Strength Gala. The purpose of the Gala is to raise awareness of and to support the Muscular Dystrophy Association’s cause.
Through finding research breakthroughs, providing care and empowering families with services and support, MDA fights to free individuals and their families from the harmful effects of muscular dystrophy, ALS and related life-threatening diseases so they can live longer and grow stronger. After losing a valued teammate, MDA’s cause became especially important to the Induron family. We’re proud to play a part in the fight against muscular diseases in honor of Induron teammate, Steve Watts (1954-2010). Continue reading Induron Sponsors MDA Toast to Strength Gala
