TOA Survives Hurricane Sandy
Due to the destruction brought by Hurricane Sandy this week to the NY & NJ area, TOA's Secaucus, NJ offices were without power and were closed from Monday, October 29th through Wednesday, October 31st. As of Thursday, November 1st, power has been restored and we are once again open and available to serve our customer's needs. We apologize for any inconvenience or confusion this may have caused, though this has not significantly impacted on our ability to process orders from our central warehouse. Our west coast (Burlingame, CA) office staff has worked hard to handle the overflow during this event. We are also glad to report that all NJ TEI personnel are well, though power is still out in many areas and will not be restored for some time. Travel in the NY/NJ area is still very difficult due to road closures from flooding, downed trees and power lines. Communication is also unavailable in many areas. The effects on NY/NJ area businesses and families have been devastating to say the least. Our heartfelt concern also goes out to all our customers and their families who have been affected by this storm. We hope everyone is safe and sound and can look forward to recovering from this catastrophe as soon as possible. The Red Cross is still looking for volunteers for shelters for displaced residents and you are never too far away to help.

October Show Wrap-Up
TOA was an exhibitor at the 2012 Great Lakes A/V Expo is sponsored by AVCOM, Inc., C. L. Pugh and Associates, Inc., and the manufacturers they represent on October 24th and 25th at the Crowne Plaza Cleveland Airport. Here we had an opportunity to display our new IR Classroom System, SR-S Slim Line array speakers, 9000M2 Digital Mixer, BGM Amplifiers, and our new AV-20D Micro Amplifier. There were several working tabletop exhibits, a live audio demo room, and training sessions that offered CTS certification. Turnout was fantastic. If you missed it this year, look for it again in 2013.
TOA was also on the east coast at the same time, exhibiting at the NJSBA Partners in Student Success Workshop on October 23-25, 2012 at the Atlantic City Convention Center. Education leaders, businesses, non-profits, educators and communities all came together to ensure a successful future for the children of New Jersey. TOA had on display our new IR Classroom System, N-8000 Intercom System, new AV-20D Micro Amplifier, new PC-580R Economy Ceiling Speaker, and the new Q-RM9012 Paging Mic.
