Here is what a few of our clients had to say about their recent event.

From the Midwest Section PGA

Over the eighteen plus years I have been associated with the Midwest Section PGA we have held and managed an untold number of business meetings and conferences from one end of the Kansas City Metroplex to the other: East to West, North to South.

Those many meetings have afforded us the opportunity to see and utilize everything as that relates to meeting planning. Our experiences the past two years at the Adam’s Point Conference Center have been by far the best! From room accessibility to convenience, to staffing, to quality for the money your facility is at the top of the list.

Should you ever need a recommendation, please do not hesitate to use the Midwest Section PGA as a contact.

Thank your staff for being so gracious and helpful. Thanks once again for being so very professional in your field.

Very truly yours,

Jon E. Jacobson, Executive Director/CEO

From the Missouri Society of Professional Engineers

I am always on the look out for a property where my association’s Annual Convention can be the center of attention. With an average total attendance of about 150, our convention rates as a small to medium group at many hotel and convention center properties. Too many times, we become a little fish in a big pond so I’m always looking for a property where our members can be treated like the “big fish.” Adams Pointe Conference Center and Marriott Courtyard Hotel was just the right “catch” for our 2005 meeting.

Thank you for the follow up and even moreso for hosting us. We have two full training facilities which typically host our events. We began hosting “road shows” last year. The week of April 26 was our third such trip. It was by far the most successful. I have been attending meetings at offsite facilities either as a presenter or attendee for going on 8 years.

I have been to resorts/meeting centers outside of Denver, Palm Springs, San Antonio, and many other places. I have yet to come across a facility with a staff as cordial and prepared as yours. Everyone was very helpful and cooperative. The meeting room was also perfect. To top it off, the food was excellent. I come from family that ran restaurants and catering businesses on both sides. I know the difficult tasks involved with preparing food for a large number of people. Your staff could not have been better prepared or performed at a higher level. All of this was a major contributing factor to help us host one of the most successful events to date. I can only hope that our trip to Atlanta in August will approach the same results.

As for the events being held on a regular basis, we will not return with this particular workshop for at least two years. We are looking at hosting some other classes in the area, with dates to be determined. You can rest assured that we will not waste anytime searching for a host location. Once we have selected the date(s) for our next trip, I will notify you immediately so that we can begin planning. Thank you again for being such wonderful hosts. You have set the standard for all future trips the Simpson Strong-Tie workshop program will make. Please share our thank you with the entire staff. Please let me know if I can assist as a reference for anyone else looking to hold an event at your location. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Billy Viars
