A Note From Our President

Dear Members,

As we enter into the holiday season, I would like to give thanks to you for your continued support of the Association's goals and mission.  It is only with your support that we can address the important issues and challenges facing us in our Motorcoach industry.  Through alliances, we are able to stand stronger by helping each other.  

In October, we had a great gathering in Atlantic City.  Whether you participated in all or just some of the events over the course of the two days, we hope it was a worthwhile experience for you.  We owe a debt of gratitude to Danielle Smith of the FMCSA for being our keynote speaker and our panelists from Saucon, Zonar & ISE Fleet Management.  With their help, we now have the most up-to-date information on Electronic Log Devices as we march toward the deadline for implementation.  

By the numbers, we had one of the largest Marketplace events in recent history of the Association with close to 500 attendees and 60 exhibitors. We also had 140 attendees at the Association meeting, 90 guests at the Meet & Mingle and 55 who participated in the golf outing. 

A special THANK YOU to Allan Doerr and Harrah's for hosting this great event.  A full recap with photos will be shared in our next hard copy newsletter being mailed to you next month.  

Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Tim Stout
President

November Education Sessions

This month we held two educational events for our Members.

On November 9th, we held the Annual Driver Safety Meeting .  We had over 50 drivers participate in the training.  We would like to thank the good folks at the Atlantic City Transportation Center for hosting our meeting and also thank  Bob Crescenzo and Ron Fuller of Lancer Insurance for presenting our drivers with great information and a live bus evacuation demonstration.

The drivers who attended were treated to lunch by the Association and received door prizes from our casino partners.  A special thank you to Resorts, Tropicana and Bally's/Caesar's/Harrah's for their support & generosity!

On November 17th, we partnered with the New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission (NJMVC) to present a CDL Train-the-Trainer  workshop. This training was geared toward instructors or training personnel employed by our Members and had a limited number of seats.  We filled them all, and then some!  A special thanks to the NJMVC for providing the training and also Association Member, Greyhound Lines , for hosting the event at their Pleasantville location.

Thank you and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Pattie Cowley
Executive Director
