Wayfinders a Boon to ArtsMarket 2011

"It seems appropriate at this time of giving thanks that I reach out to thank you all again for the wonderful job you did in volunteering for ArtsMarket 2011. The Conference organizers and delegates were very impressed by your professionalism and caring customer service - as indeed was I. As most of you know, this was the first time that ArtsMarket had been held in Durham - and the event was such a resounding success that plans are already underway to schedule the next Arts Market in Fall of 2013! A special thanks to Chelsey at the Durham CVB for her assistance in recruiting such great volunteers and I do hope I will have the pleasure to work with you all again in 2013."

Marriott at RTP 'An Excellent Stay'

"I was very pleased with this Marriott at RTP. As a frequent traveler, I stay at a wide range of hotels and this property is in the top end of that range. I will certainly stay here the next time I am in the area. Attention to detail is a key to service at any hotel, and this one "gets it"... The management of this property should be complimented on a job well done!"
