MADA - Minnesota Automotive Dealers Association

Annual SPCC Pheasant Hunt
2026-09-30
The Service, Parts & Collision Council (SPCC) Annual Pheasant Hunt is one of MADA’s most anticipated fall traditions. This unique event brings together Minnesota’s fixed operations professionals — service managers, parts managers, collision and body shop leaders, and repair teams — for a day of camaraderie, outdoor activity, and industry connection.
The Pheasant Hunt isn’t just about sport — it’s about strengthening the Service, Parts & Collision community, supporting the next generation of technicians, and celebrating the professionals who keep Minnesota’s dealerships running strong. Proceeds from the event directly support SPCC initiatives, workforce development, and training programs that advance the vehicle repair industry.
For Associate Members, the Annual Pheasant Hunt offers an exclusive sponsorship opportunity — putting your company in front of fixed operations decision makers in a casual, relationship-building environment. It’s the perfect way to connect with dealership leaders while supporting the future of the industry.
