DATES
LUBBOCK, TX FEBRUARY 13, 2018 – On behalf of everybody at Director’s Choice, I am pleased to announce the acquisition of Masterpiece Tours. In January, our companies began a cooperative agreement under which certain Masterpiece Tours’ operations will be assumed by Director’s Choice beginning with the 2018-2019 school year. Excellent service, deep expertise, and dedication to educational travel for all clients and associates remain the core values of this new partnership.
Masterpiece Tours will continue to operate at the same phone number and address through the Spring of 2018. Paul Davis will continue working with Director’s Choice during the entire process to make sure tours get the same level of service and attention clients have enjoyed in the past. In addition, Paul will share his extensive experience and knowledge to help all current and future clients of Director’s Choice. I am personally very excited to be partnering with Paul in the future.
Andy Davidson will officially retire from Masterpiece Tours in the summer of 2018, but will then use his expertise and join the Operations Team at Director’s Choice. Although Andy will be specifically managing airline fare negotiation and ticketing, he will be a vital part of many operational aspects of Director’s Choice. Speaking for my Operations Team, we are excited to welcome Andy and look forward to his influence.
Paul and Andy are grateful to their clients giving them the opportunity to provide travel services in addition to the friendship and loyalty they have developed over the years. Amy, the Director’s Choice Team, and I look forward to the new affiliation with Paul, Sharon, Andy and their long time clients. This is a wonderful time for Director’s Choice and the groups we serve.
If you have any questions about this exciting news and what it will mean for you, please contact any of us at any time.
Respectfully,
Jon Locke
Owner and CEO
