Chuck Boyd, a longtime Dealer Services Manager for the RV Dealers Association (RVDA), has passed away, the association confirmed.
Boyd served the RVDA and its members for more than 30 years, becoming a central figure in dealer support and industry engagement.
Throughout his tenure, Boyd was instrumental in leading membership initiatives, including retention and recruitment strategies that helped strengthen the RVDA’s national presence.
He also managed the Go RVing Dealer Tie-In Program, which supported dealers with co-branded marketing materials and promotional resources.
In addition to his membership work, Boyd served as team leader for the RVDA/RV Learning Center booth at major trade shows and conventions across the country.
His role placed him at the forefront of dealer engagement efforts during key industry events.
“Chuck was a dedicated trade association professional who always worked in the best interest of dealers,” RVDA President Phil Ingrassia said in a press release.
“On behalf of the RVDA Boards of Directors and Delegates, I want to pass on our condolence to his family as well as his many friends in the RV industry,” Ingrassia added.
Boyd’s leadership helped enhance RVDA’s visibility at both national and regional gatherings, reinforcing the association’s commitment to dealer development and continuing education.
“Chuck’s contributions helped enhance the visibility of RVDA at trade shows and conventions, and his efforts in building dealer engagement have left a lasting legacy at RVDA. RVDA will keep members informed regarding memorial arrangements,” the press release indicates.
RVDA, the national trade group representing RV retailers, advocates for the interests of dealers across the United States. It focuses on education, member services, and industry advancement.
In addition to its core services, RVDA offers a range of member-exclusive resources, including access to compliance tools, market statistics, best practices, and advocacy communications.
Members benefit from opportunities to connect through events such as the annual Convention/Expo—a week of education and networking—as well as the ability to join a nationwide network of new, aftermarket, and rental RV dealers.
