Northwoods Offers Affordable Destination Meetings in California
Hotel in Big Bear Lake Introduces Incentive Packages and 60-Second Planning Program
MAY 6, 2009 - The Northwoods Resort and Conference Center is letting all meeting planners in California and surrounding states know that off-site destination meetings are back in style and more affordable than ever. As companies across the nation downsize off-site events in light of economic conditions, the popular Big Bear Lake resort is fighting back with inexpensive and option-packed meeting incentives as part of their "Spring Stimulus Package".
The fun "Power to Choose" package offers customized rewards. Based on the number of rooms reserved, planners may select up to three perks from a list including discounts on Audio/Visual rentals, complimentary receptions, room upgrades, VIP amenities, space rental, free catering services and more. This package requires a minimum of 10 rooms booked and consumed on a peak night.
With conference space for up to 400 attendees, Northwoods Resort welcomes large meetings and events. Through the end of June 2009, meeting planners can earn automatic discounts off the final invoice based on the total cost of their event, anywhere from 10-25%. The larger the meeting, the larger the discount.
More information on both "Spring Stimulus Packages" is available at http://www.northwoodsresort.com/meeting-special-offers.html
California corporate retreats can take time to plan, so not only is Northwoods Resort making it affordable, it's making it fast. The Big Bear conference center just rolled out a "60-Second Meeting Planner" for unmatched convenience.
With this easy-to-use system, planners can reserve dates, select a setup, assign the schedule, choose from four catering menus and submit the request in only sixty seconds. Within 24 hours, the planner receives confirmation and the meeting is ready to go.
