The Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA) is excited to announce the hire of Lyndsey Shock as Chief Executive Officer effective May 5, 2025. A Search Committee was created by the FSPA Board to take on the task of hiring a new CEO when the position became vacant in January 2025. More than 200 resumes, numerous phone interviews, and a handful of in person interviews led the committee to its final selection.
Shock’s background includes working her way through the ranks at Florida Water Product ending her time there as an owner. She managed staff, held financial responsibility, and ran new systems in her time there. She has also owned her own small business before returning to the pool industry that she loves and missed. Most recently she has worked as the FSPA Tampa Bay Chapter Coordinator while working full time as a sales representative for Gorman Company.
Shock spent years as a member of FSPA and spent time on the Board of Directors, giving her a familiarity with the dynamics of the FSPA’s leadership. She is ready to continue the work being done to follow the strategic plan already in place, to build new relationships, and lead the Association forward.
“The years of experience Lyndsey has in the pool industry gives her an understanding and leg up in entering this role. We are confident good things will come from her leadership and implementation of FSPA’s goals,” says FSPA President Deidre Bedford.
