COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS
Despite the record amounts of snow in Massachusetts this winter that has brought new definition to the term "hibernation", the Willowdale team has been very busy over the past few months with events taking place here at the Estate, as well as wonderful new opportunities to further our involvement in the Northshore community.
On Monday, February 23rd, one of our Wedding Sales Managers (Kaitlin Umbro) and our Planning and Production Manager (Monique Jeffrey) attended a Northshore hospitality vendor show at Endicott College. Along with a number of other North Shore businesses, Willowdale had the opportunity to personally engage with Endicott students focused on our industry and discuss the nuances of our business. The event also provided students with an opportunity to talk to vendors in the events industry on a one-on-one basis about internships, which is a vital part of the Endicott curriculum. We were thrilled to have been asked to be a part of this valuable event.
Set against a backdrop of fresh snowfall, we also welcomed recently engaged couples to our elegant Wedding Open House last month! Attendees enjoyed delicious food, cocktails and Willowdale baked goods, while having the opportunity to speak with member of our Sales Team and find out more about hosting their dream wedding at Willowdale Estate. If you happened to miss this event, stay tuned for our next Wedding Open House taking place in May!
So what's coming up next for the Willowdale Estate team in the month of March? Well, we're very excited to announce our participation in this year's 2015 North Shore Business Expo, hosted by the Northshore Chamber of Commerce. On Thursday, March 12th, I will be joined by our Executive Chef (Ben Lightbody) and Senior Sales and Marketing Manager (Sarah Boucher) to introduce all that Willowdale has to offer to the North Shore Business community. With a social and corporate events package that has been enhanced considerably over the last year, Willowdale Estate is now the perfect setting for corporate and social meetings, luncheons, summer outings, holiday celebrations, and much more! We are thrilled to be part of a very talented group of North Shore businesses presenting at this expo, and can't wait to spread the word about our hidden gem here in Topsfield, Massachusetts.
