 "I have worked with Pat Gowan for several years and she has been a great help in all the international trips I have taken.  I feel very confident when leaving the country that all details are in place and travel will be easy.  I was even stranded in Europe one year and Pat took care of everything and made sure we returned home safely. " Nancy Carpenter, Topeka

"...Thank you for all your help in making our honeymoon the best memory possible!",
Susan and Brad, Topeka

"...I would like to take a moment to say thank you to one of your agents. I have worked with Debbie Marvin every year for plane tickets for my son in Connecticut.  This has been going on for 11 years.  She has always worked to find the best possible times and rates that she can and with all the unaccompanied minor stuff - I am sure it has not always been easy.  I know a lot of people are using the internet these days, but I will always use Travel Leaders.  Thank you all so much and thank you Debbie!..." Adam L, Lawrence Ks

"...You did great! You've been great to work with!  You are exactly why we need to use travel agents!" Joyce B, Topeka

We are SO PROUD of you Pat! Pat Gowan will be recognized in Phoenix by one of her long-time corporate clients. NIAAA is recognizing Pat in appreciation for her years of service and dedication.

For over 25 years she has been the helping hand for those who travel to, or for, the National Interscholastic Athletic Administrators Association – NIAAA. Our people speak so highly o...f Pat, her demeanor, patience, and willingness to assist when travel challenges arise during a trip. For those making arrangements to travel to Indianapolis for meetings, or their travel to our national conference, it is always assuring to hear Pat’s voice with options for planning preparations. It is our pleasure to recognize, Pat Gowan, on December 12 at the NIAAA Annual Meeting held during the National Athletic Directors Conference in Phoenix, Arizona. The NIAAA family is excited to do so – Congratulations, Pat!
