MA Member - Winner of 'GEEZERS' Tree Climbing Competition
Bruce Duffy, a NEC-ISA Member and ISA Certified Arborist, traveled to Florida mid January to compete
in the 2nd Annual 'Geezers' Tree Climbing Competition.  This competition was created for climbers
over the age of 40 who are still sharp in their skills and want to compete.  (Many of these climbers
are judges or volunteers in their Chapter TCC events.)

Bruce is an active member and yearly significantly supports the TCC with event set-up, judging, and
volunteering.  Past 3-time, NEC-ISA Champion, Bruce demonstrated he is still on top of his game!  

Congratulations Bruce!
