“Mike and Ursula are a great team and have worked diligently to grow and improve NAUI efforts in Southern Africa,” said NAUI Executive Director Dallas Edmiston. “They will be missed, but we wish them well in retirement.”

While stepping down from the day-to-day management of NAUI member service and support, van Niekerk still plans to remain active as a NAUI leader.

“Ursula and I have truly enjoyed our time with NAUI Services Group Southern Africa,” said van Niekerk. “Now it’s time to focus more on us than on NAUI. We still plan to remain involved as members of this great Association but at a pace and on a scale that’s more in-tune with our lifestyle at this time.”
