We would like to thank our attendees for making our February Luncheon another great session of networking among industry peers. Hugh Sinnock of the LVCVA shared some very interesting statistics that show our local market starting to bounce back. We were all encouraged to share a smile and helping hand to our common customers (exhibitors and event managers) as we all do our part to make Vegas the No. 1 convention destination. Stay tuned for more information about our April and May networking events as we venture out to visit some of our local members’ operations!
