Mc Kenna D ear Dealer Members: As your incoming Chairman of the Board for the New Car Dealers Association, I am thoroughly excited and pre- pared to serve the San Diego County new car dealer community over the next year in this new role. Having been on Board of Directors for several years now, I’ve seen firsthand just how valuable our Association is and howmuch work is done on behalf of dealers. New car dealers are entering an era that likely will involve unprecedented changes to the way we interact with our customers and our vendors, in addition to ongoing challenges related to the franchise system, regulatory compliance, government relations and human resources, just to name a few. We operate complex businesses, and the New Car Dealers Association continues to position itself at the forefront of the issues and challenges we face today and into the future. I look forward to representing our Association both internally and externally and collaborating with the rest of the Board and Association staff to ensure that we run our businesses effectively and efficiently. I encourage all dealers to take full advantage of the incredible benefits offered by the New Car Dealers Association, including events like Dealer Day and the annual Golf Tournament, both of which are profiled in this issue. And please don’t hesitate to reach out to your boardmembers and the Association staff with any issues or questions you might have. Sincerely, Paul McKenna Chairman, New Car Dealers Association
