The United States’ RV Industry Association has announced the results of an election process for four open seats on its board of directors.
The successful candidates who will join the board for three-year terms starting 1 January 2026 are as follows: Ryan Elias, President and General Manager of Triple E Recreational Vehilces/Leisure Travel Vans; Brett Randall, President, CEO, and majority owner of Columbia Northwest, Inc.; Brent Diver, Partner and Chief Revenue Officer for Ranger Distribution Inc.; and Mike Hesse, CEO and owner of Blue Ox.
Voting was carried out through September for two seats on the board for individuals from RV manufacturers (filled by Ryan Elias and Brett Randall) and two individuals from suppliers (filled by Brent Diver and Mike Hesse).
The board of directors is the highest level of authority within the RV Industry Association and has responsibility for setting and overseeing strategy and policy related to critical topics such as standards, marketing, government affairs, events, industry education, and the association’s finances.
An organisational meeting to elect officers for the next year will take place following a board of directors meeting taking place at the RV Dealers Association Convention in November.
