“The NTDA Annual Convention brings together decision-makers from trailer dealerships throughout North America along with all of the top-level trailer OEMs and service providers. Our mission is clear, to help trailer dealers increase efficiency and profitability, and our educational programs, presentations, and general sessions are all geared to make this happen. The Convention also includes the best networking events available in the industry,” says Gwendolyn Brown, NTDA president.
NTDA says this year’s convention will be held Oct. 9-11, at The Breakers in Palm Beach, Fla. Online registration and housing open next week on the NTDA website.
Looking ahead, the NTDA says other finalized convention dates and locations are:
- 30th Annual Convention from Oct. 14-16, 2020, at Renaissance Indian Wells Resort & Spa, in Indian Wells, Calif.
- 31st Annual Convention from Oct. 6-8, 2021, at Fairmont Chateau Whistler, in Whistler, British Columbia, Canada.
- 32nd Annual Convention from Oct. 11-14, 2022, at The Broadmoor, Colorado Springs, Colo., which was the site of last year’s NTDA convention that set records for both attendees and exhibitors.
“Our members have come to expect the annual NTDA Convention will be held at a five-star resort in a beautiful setting, and with world-class golfing, events and networking opportunities to match our world-class educational sessions, and the association has delivered all that plus incredible educational content and networking year over year,” says Brown.
Each annual NTDA Convention includes educational sessions, industry and economic overviews, a world-class keynote speaker, special networking events for new members and industry leaders, and an exhibition and luncheon that features more than 100 displays. Many NTDA members introduce new products and innovations at the event, the organization says.
An additional highlight of each year’s convention program is the annual golf tournament, which NTDA says has become a fundraiser for the NTDA’s Scholarship Program. The NTDA has awarded more than $150,000 in scholarships to 44 students since 1998.
