Our Top Five Rcpt’s & Hspty Suites of UBCM 2011
#BCPoli #Vancouver #UBCM – This year featured about 10 hospitality suites or receptions depending on who was counting…Here’s one opinion on the top 5:
5. Enbridge Presidents Reception at the Fairmont Water
- Good Crowd, Served Lamp Chops amongst other goodies, but had a long bar line
4. Stantec & Epcor Reception at the Vancouver Club
- Another big crowd, cheese cake buffet was very popular, good coverage on the bar
3. Port Edward Hospitality Suite hosted by Mayor Dave MacDonald at the Sutton Place
- No better people on earth than the Port Edward Crew! Lots of Port Ed’s finest seafood and the hourly draws for canned Salmon was a big hit!
2. Fortis Reception at Canada Place
- Having a couple Canucks on hand was a big hit, and the presentation by Van Canucks Assistant GM Laurence Gilman was very interesting and appreciated in the packed ballroom. The only thing that held Fortis out of top spot was closing the bar at 7pm!
1. Cupe Reception at the Hyatt Regency
- The brothers and sisters at Cupe threw one outstanding reception, it was very well attended! There was plenty of food and a very wide assortment of it! But the key was a fully stocked bar that was open until midnight (Fortis take note :P)
That concludes the UBCM 2011 recap, with hopes that Victoria in 2012 will prove to be as interesting and exciting!
