 HAPPY NEW YEAR!

 

We said GOOD-BYE to 2011 and HELLO 2012. We celebrated in true Hollywood style for our New Year's Eve Extravaganza. The hotel and ballroom looked stunning.

 

We celebrated with some old friends and we made some new ones at this year's bash.

 

We are looking forward to making new memories with you this coming year!

 

Our plans for 2012 are to make Traditions at the Glen your place to be.

 

Every month we plan on making Traditions not only the place to stay but the place to play!

 

Some of the Highlights and Challenges we faced at Traditions this past year:

  • The Rain and Floods - Golf Course
  • No Power at the hotel after the flood
  • Lourdes Hospital Gala  
  • We collected $10,000. From our Wine and Pizza Benefit for the Red Cross
  • The Opening of our Salt Sanctuary
  • Cans and Clams Labor Day Weekend - Record Night - Attendance and Revenues
  • We had 62 nights of sell outs in our guestrooms
  • Achieved Record Room Sales
  • Achieved Record Food & Beverage Sales 

 

We are very proud to have been a part of this past year, its challenges and triumphs!

 

So get ready for the excitement to begin again!

 

Best Regards,

 

Candace Jones, CHA

Want to become a Traditions Bride? Call our sales office and let us plan your wedding day.

 

 

 

We also have 2 beautiful tents to hold ceremonies and receptions in. Last year we held several weddings in our Glen View Tent and transformed it into a stunning ballroom. Be courageous and outrageous and do something different! The Glen View is the perfect place to hold that outdoor wedding reception.

 

Traditions at the Glen is the premier wedding venue! Its romantic setting, professional service, and gourmet food. What better place to have a wedding! From guestrooms, to pampering in our Spa and Salt Sanctuary, to the round of golf for groom and his groomsmen this should be your choice for one of the most important times of your life!
