The 2026 NHADA Family Convention, “Generations in Gear,” brought together members, industry partners and families from across New Hampshire for three memorable days of networking, recreation and celebration at The Lake Estate on Winnisquam. 

From June 21-23, attendees enjoyed an event designed to strengthen relationships, celebrate our industry, and create lasting memories with family and colleagues. The convention kicked off on Sunday with a Father’s Day Cookout, followed by a Sunset Social and an evening outing to the Jelly Roll concert at Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion. Families also had access to the Kids Club throughout the event, ensuring activities for attendees of all ages.

Monday featured the annual convention golf tournament at Lochmere Country Club, while attendees also enjoyed a variety of activities, including pickleball, wellness experiences, bourbon tasting, floral workshops and water sports. The evening concluded with the highly anticipated “Mixtapes & Margaritas” celebration, bringing members together for cocktails, dinner, dancing and plenty of opportunities to reconnect with industry friends and partners.

Beyond the activities and entertainment, the convention continues to serve an important purpose: fostering the relationships that strengthen New Hampshire’s automotive industry. Whether attendees were longtime members or first-time participants, the event offered valuable opportunities to share ideas, discuss industry challenges and build connections that extend far beyond the convention weekend.

NHADA extends its sincere appreciation to all members, guests, volunteers and staff who helped make this year’s convention such a success. We would also like to thank our presenting sponsors, Nucar Automotive Group and Auto Auction of New England, for their continued support, and our other generous sponsors for helping to make this and other association events possible.

Coming Up: Drive for a Tech Golf Tournament

With another successful convention in the books, NHADA’s next major event is right around the corner. Join us on Sept. 11 for the annual Drive for a Tech Golf Tournament, a fundraising event supporting the future of New Hampshire’s automotive workforce. Proceeds help fund technician scholarships, workforce development initiatives and programs that connect students with rewarding careers in the automotive industry.
