Every team needs a mascot, and ours is a Weimaraner named Newt. Newt serves as The Macomber Group's Director of Morale. His primary responsibilities include security and visitor relations. When he's not on the clock, Newt enjoys napping and chasing 'his' cat, who apparently is NOT allowed out from under the couch.
