VANCOUVER — Top hotel industry leaders recently gathered at the Five Sails Restaurant in Vancouver.
The annual event, organized by Jason Cheskes of Above the Line Solutions, is held to give key hotel leaders an opportunity to gather in a purely social environment to network, build bridges between those in the industry, and have an opportunity to get to know BC Hotel Association leadership.
At this year’s dinner, Cheskes invited the group to welcome Beth McMahon, newly appointed president and CEO of the Hotel Association of Canada (HAC), and then recognized the strong leadership and significant accomplishments of the BCHA’s president and CEO, Ingrid Jarrett, who has announced that she will be stepping down from the role in the coming months. Also recognized were the large number of attendees present at the dinner that are current or past board directors with HAC, BCHA and other provincial hotel associations, the critical role played by these industry associations in supporting the industry and the reciprocal need of those in the industry to support the associations.
