NADRA NEWS:

Greetings!

2025 was a year of connection, collaboration, and continued momentum across the outdoor living industry. From education-focused sessions to meaningful networking opportunities, each NADRA event brought professionals together to share ideas, celebrate achievements, and strengthen our future.


As we move into 2026, that momentum continues, fueling new ideas, deeper connections, and an even stronger outdoor living industry community.


We look forward to another year of growth, learning, and collaboration with you. Here’s to making 2026 our best year yet!


With Appreciation,


NADRA HQ,

Michael (Pops) & Margie Beaudry

Mindi, Heather, Jenn, and Stephanie

NADRA 2026 Summit & Awards Gala in Clearwater Beach


If you plan to attend the NADRA Summit, please complete your registration as soon as possible.


Final attendee counts are critical for badge printing and food planning, and day-of registration creates challenges for both the NADRA team and the venue.


NADRA room blocked has closed - please contact 727- 281-9500 for last-minute reservations.


Unable to join us in person? We’ll be streaming the Awards Gala LIVE, so you can still be part of the evening and celebrate alongside the industry.

The NADRA Awards Ceremony will be streamed live on our YouTube channel on January 8, 2026, with a start time of approximately 7:30–8:00 PM EST. Join us as we celebrate outstanding projects, innovation, and the professionals who continue to raise the bar across the outdoor living industry.


Plan a watch party with your team, crew, or family, and tune in together as the winners are announced live.


Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube channel and add it to your calendar so you don’t miss a moment. https://www.youtube.com/@NadraNational
