New Team Member

In 1962 Frank and Shirley Main had a vision that the RV industry held promise for their future. This was an emerging industry that had the potential to change the way families spent their leisure time.

In 1970, oldest son Don joined the firm and in 1978 became President and General Manager. Don still holds the same position with the company and is pleased to announce that his son, Ryan has recently rejoined the company (he worked with us while attending school) and will initially resume his career in the sales department – along with several other duties.

Ryan is a third generation associate with Pik-A-Dilly and we are very proud to have him as part of the team. This newsletter will be one of Ryan’s responsibilities and your feedback would be valuable to him as he develops what we intend to be a regular, informative tool for all of our RV’ing friends.

Please join us in welcoming Ryan and feel free to email him with suggestions for upcoming newsletters at rmain@pikadilly.com.
