First day of 2021 UMA Motorcoach EXPO in photos

The 2021 UMA Motorcoach EXPO kicked off Wednesday in Orlando. The itinerary included the annual UMA State Association Summit and a poolside Welcome reception and dinner. The day was capped off by the first in-person weekly Buses & Beer industry call with host Jeff Goldwasser handing out prizes donated by vendors to operators. Here are some of the photo highlights of the day. More photos can be found – and added – on the EXPO app.
