Refinish Distributors Alliance (RDA) announced that it had record attendance at its May Membership Meeting Sept. 28-30 at the Westin Canal Place in New Orleans.

The three days included speakers such as Noah Richun, a professional speaker and business leader known for his innovative, passionate and relatable style, and keynote speaker Anthony “AB” Bourke, the CEO and founder of Mach 2 Consulting. Bourke applied the tools and techniques he learned as one of the nation’s premier F-16 fighter pilots to the competitive world of business, becoming a top-producing mortgage banker.

They let the good times roll while the entire group was led in a “second line parade,” which included a five piece brass band and police escort to the landmark restaurant Brennans in the French Quarter, where they enjoyed a reception and dinner.

“We appreciate the support of our members and manufacturers,” said Executive Director Robert McKenzie Jr. “We are privileged to have them attend our meetings and will continue to find ways to elevate the content so we provide relevant information and takeaways that everyone can implement and will make a difference for them personally and in their businesses.”
