Alisa Walsh Made Very High Tech Friends at The Sheraton Los Angeles San Gabriel

Image
Alisa Walsh recently had the pleasure of touring a very exciting addition to local hotel and event space offerings, the Sheraton Los Angeles San Gabriel. The 288-room Sheraton opened a little earlier this year and it has already achieved a peak occupancy rate of 85% as well as nationwide media attention due to the most modern staffers; 8 TUG robots. The Sheraton L.A. San Gabriel is currently the only U.S. hotel to feature these high tech "staffers". The hotel also offers a lot of extra features to accommodate Asian visitors' specific wishes and needs. We are happy to share more details. Above: the Sheraton Los Angeles San Gabriel. A lot of expansion is underway in the City of San Gabriel, just East of Downtown Los Angeles, and a hub for Asian communities. The Valley Boulevard Specific Plan, an urban redevelopment project for this thoroughfare, was launched in December 2006.

Event Report: We Knocked It Out Of The AT&T Park

We love working in iconic baseball stadiums. Guests will always remember this night. However, there are challenges to conquer. The Event: the Closing Night of a multi-day conference. Date: August 4, 2018 Guests: 2,600 Location: AT&T Park, San Francisco, CA Our Assignment : Decor, Themed Entertainers and Activations Challenge 1: The Ground During baseball season it is all about the turf. We had gained a lot of experience working at Petco Park in 2017. The whole outfield has to be covered with special flooring to protect the turf. It has to be put in last minute since the less time the turf is covered the better. We coordinated with park staff to return the field to its baseball ready status in record time. Our event concluded Saturday night. We started to strike immediately and park staff pulled up the flooring literally right behind us as we were removing event decor and furnishings. The Giants played a home game on Monday. The turf was as green as it should be.

While I don't see a slam-dunk "song of summer" track yet some of these catchy hooks are sure to keep your head bopping in the car or office. Props go to "The Greatest Showman" soundtrack which has dominated the 2018 album charts at No.1 for 28 weeks! It became only the second album in 30 years to spend 11 consecutive weeks at Number 1." Turn up the volume! Wishing you summer fun.
