Registration is open for MADA’s annual spring membership meeting. This event brings together dealers and management teams across Michigan for networking, lunch and an update on our industry.

This year, we have added a presentation on artificial intelligence (AI) in the dealership. AI is not another tool category. It is a shift in how dealerships operate. Business leaders cannot escape nor ignore AI’s impact on operations and customer relationships. It has become critical that dealers understand how to use AI properly – in a way that benefits your business and your people.

WHO: Dealers, Management Teams, AI Integration Staff

WHEN: May 19, 2026  |  Doors Open 11:30 AM

WHERE: Eagle Eye Banquet Center in Bath, MI

Jen Monkiewicz, MADSIF’s Fund Administrator, will review the benefits and qualifications of the program.

MADSIF is a dealer-owned and operated self-insured workers’ compensation group, created in the 1990s by MADA members. Currently insuring 300+ Michigan dealerships and covering 18,000+ employees – MADSIF was created to give members control of their workers compensation. MADSIF’s programs and services continue to be directed by Michigan dealer trustees.
