“Our goal for this year’s Crestliner dealer meeting celebration was to create a positive, upbeat experience for our dealers,” Cast said during his thank you address. “They work so hard on our behalf, promoting our products and supporting the Crestliner brand promise.”

“It was nice to pause for a moment and celebrate the many successes that Crestliner dealers have achieved,” Crestliner Marketing Manager Lori Kneeland said following the annual meeting. “Based on the dealer feedback we’ve received so far, we accomplished that goal. In addition to having an upbeat meeting, the excitement and positive energy around our brand going into the upcoming model year was apparent.”
