Entegra Coach hosted its annual owner’s Homecoming Event from May 13-16 at the Elkhart County Fairgrounds in Goshen, Indiana. The event brought 200 RVs and nearly 500 luxury diesel coach owners and other attendees together.

The Homecoming also began one week after Entegra announced it would shift its luxury diesel Type A manufacturing to Tiffin beginning in 2026. The event is not the final Homecoming rally. Jayco President and CEO Ken Walters told attendees that Jayco would host Homecoming again in 2026. Each year after, if Jayco has a commitment of at least 200 motorhomes, as it did in 2025, the manufacturer would host the Homecoming rally.

Vice President of Sales Nic Martin said, “This year’s event was bittersweet on the heels of the announcement regarding our future in this segment of the business, but it was important for our customers to hear and more importantly see from us directly that our commitment to them is unchanged and we are confident that message was received.”

The opening day began with a question-and-answer session featuring Walters to discuss the transition announcement. Senior Product Director Pat Carroll followed Walters to the stage to discuss Entegra Coach’s 2026 model updates.

Consumers toured new models and interacted with Entegra Coach’s sales and product development teams. The next night, Vice President of Marketing Trey Miller and Martin hosted a management program. The evening finished with the tradition of all Entegra Coach owners returning to their motorhomes and turning on their front “C” lights.

Vice President of Customer Service Steve Claude introduced the team responsible for servicing coaches and providing technical support throughout the week at the Thursday dinner. Consumers headed out Friday morning.

Event sponsors included Platinum sponsor Spartan RV Chassis, Gold sponsors Global Link Distribution, Airxcel, Cummins Onan, Lippert, Premium Paint and River Park, along with numerous Silver and Bronze level sponsors.
