Joe Byrne, FRSA President

Thanks also to our great staff of true professionals that keep FRSA running like a fine-tuned machine, lead by Executive Director, Lisa Pate, for whom I am grateful.


The Convention was a great success, especially in light of what we went through last year with the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. I am truly grateful to all the vendors who contributed not only to the success of this year’s Convention and Expo, but also to those who rolled over their commitments from the previous year.


Governor Ron DeSantis was our guest of honor during the Officer Installation Dinner at the Convention and he delivered a great speech that had the crowd cheering. I would like to thank FRSA Lobbyist Chris Dawson and NRCA CEO Reid Ribble for making it happen. Hopefully, the Governor will return next year for our 100th Annual Convention taking place in Daytona Beach – the location of FRSA’s first organizational meeting and Convention in 1922. Read more
