Super Sun, Brilliant Business

October 2009
We’re all too aware of the elephant in the room when meetings at “resort” destinations are discussed. But we think it’s high time we revisited the rest of the zoo—and there’s no better example than the Greater Phoenix area.

Sedona, Ariz.

September 2009
Not every city can get away with calling themselves the most beautiful place in the U.S., but Sedona, Ariz. can. In a “natural beauty” pageant with thousands of cities and milieus in contention for the crown, Sedona would definitely be a finalist. In fact, USA Weekend dubbed Sedona the most beautiful place in America.

Not Your Traditional Desert

According to Hollywood, in the days of the Old West, two cowboys would stand face-to-face exactly at high noon with their hands on the triggers of their six-shooters.

Amazing Space

If Arizona is on the short list for your next meeting, it’s time to take another look—you may just move it forward.

Old Pueblo, Out West, Upscale

Let’s say you’re planning a meeting for a group that you are very well acquainted with. You know they’ve sat through their share of conference sessions in icy cold, cavernous convention center meeting rooms; they’ve eaten plenty of catered lunches of “grilled” chicken and velvet cake; and they’re acquainted with every hotel-lobby Starbucks barista from San Antonio to Seattle.

Arizona Alters Controversial Law

July 29, 2010
Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer’s office recently said that the state will file an expedited appeal, asking the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals to lift several sections of its new immigration law from going into effect today. Senate Bill 1070 was signed into law in April, making it a crime to be in the country illegally. The two key parts that will not go into effect include: the portion that allows officers to determine the immigration status of a person stopped when suspicion arose and the portion that makes it a crime of failure to apply for or carry “alien-registration papers.” azcentral.com
