Lucas’ Pool Industry Experience at Age 8 Paved Path to Success

Lucas’ Pool Industry Experience at Age 8 Paved Path to Success

Anonym

Jeff Lucas might not of realized it at age 8, but the experience he was obtaining helping his brother clean residential pools was going to propel him into a career in the industry when it was time to decide on a profession once he was older.

He was working during the summers with his brother Steve, who owned a pool building and servicing company at the time.

Jeff would continue to work with his brother every summer.  However, like everyone, Jeff’s time in the pool industry had a few bumps in the road.

Dave Pruette is not one of those pool professionals who grew up in the industry and watched his parents successfully run a pool company.

In fact, that saying “right place at the right time” could be the answer Dave gives when asked why he got into the industry or how he got his start.  It was almost by accident, really.

Jonathan Mosher is currently the president of A&D pools, an all-encompassing pool company focusing on service.  

Jon’s path to becoming a pool professional was paved for him when he was younger, there’s no question about that.

“As early as 10 years old I was in the family pool store,” said Jon.  “At the age of 14 I was out on different jobs, working on pools, specifically cleaning them.”
