ANNUAL MEMBERSHIP CONFERENCEJanuary 23 - 27, 2019

U.S. Grant HotelSan Diego, CA

Our 2019 Annual Mem-bership Conference will be held at the historic US Grant Hotel in San Diego. This is a fitting location for this year’s conference as many US Presidents have

graced this venue with their presence over the

years. The U.S. Grant is located at the foot of the Gaslamp Quarter which offers a variety of daytime activities for families and many opportunities for socializing over the two free nights during the conference. Our theme for this year is “Defining Our Future.” This coming year we have new op-portunities, from the national attention of the driver shortage to a new Governor and

Legislature in office. This is our chance to use our collective voice and our influence as CTA members in Defining Our Future! This year’s program will include insight at the federal and national level from ATA President/CEO Chris Spear and ATA Chair-man Barry Pottle. We will also hear directly from the newly appointed FMCSA Director Ray Martinez and enjoy an educational and motivating presentation from Brandon Miller, CEO of 34 Strong. Brandon will provide a pre-sentation specific to the Defining Our Future theme as it applies to the Association, mem-bership, your business, and personally. Please join me in San Diego as we usher in a New Year of energy, camaraderie and the exchange of ideas as we lay the ground work of Defining Our Future.
