VANCOUVER — Top hotel industry leaders gathered following the Western Canadian Lodging Conference at Vancouver’s top-rated seafood restaurant, The Blue Water Café.
The event was organized and hosted by Jason Cheskes, president of Above the Line Solutions, a company involved nationally in hotel procurement and support services, and has quickly become one of the industry’s favourite annual social gatherings.
“It is my distinct honour to be able to get so many incredible hotel industry leaders together to enjoy an evening of socializing and getting to know colleagues from B.C. and across the country for the British Columbia Hotel Association”, said Cheskes.
Following short addresses from John Kearns, outgoing-chair of BCHA, as well as incoming-chair, Bryan Pilbeam, guests enjoyed a fantastic dinner while socializing. Guests this year included representatives from Accor, Airline Hotels, Atlific, Best Western, CFO Capital, Choice, Coast, Colliers, CWB Finance, Executive Hotels, Genesis, the Hotel Association of Canada, HVS, Innvest, Listel, Mairet Hotels, Marriott, MasterBUILT, Northland Properties, Pacific Reach, Radisson, Realstar, Sandman, Sonder, Superior Lodging, and Wyndham.
Matt Cornell, vice-president, Investments at InnVest Hotels shared “As this was the first time for me attending one of Jason’s dinners, it was great to put a face to names. I really enjoyed it and was able to connect with quite a few people, some old friends and some new ones. A great time.”
Ecolab, Eden Textiles, Foodbuy, LG Electronics, RHB Enterprises, Serta Simmons, and Shaw Business shared sponsorship of the dinner. BCHA would like to thank them for their support, and would encourage all in the industry with hotel interests in the Province of British Columbia to join them at their annual Hospitality Summit, this year being held again in Kelowna, April 6-7th. www.bchospitalitysummit.com
