The opening evening celebration at @giantsenterprises bayfront venues was the first of many opportunities for #eventprofs to familiarize themselves with #SanFrancisco outside of the newly expanded @mosconecenter.  Capping off the week with a @maroon5 concert at @chase_center was something that will be remembered for quite some time.

#eventprofs serving the "M" in the #SMERF #meetings and #events market often look to utilize sites and venues that resonate with those affiliated to the military. The historic @battleshipmissouri in #honolulu is often the site of choice for groups that visit #hawaii.

The surrounding region has an abundance of natural beauty, is rich in #history, and is  home to a broad array of facilities with wide open spaces, all within hours of #NYC. Groups may choose to extend their stays to take advantage of nearby #FingerLakes and #NewYork State #Parks that provide opportunities for #hiking, #biking, #fishing & #boating. Currently, the region is particularly ideal to avoid quarantine restrictions for in-state #meeting & #event planning as well as when post-#COVID19 planning resumes.
