We can bring the peeps together in more ways than one!
During an icebreaker at the start of a meeting, our team talked about Peeps.
This led to us starting a tradition called the "Annual Peep-A-Thon," where we get a bunch of peeps and rank the best flavor!
Sometimes the most random ideas foster some of the best opportunities to bring people together.

Do you do blended travel?
Today's attendees are more and more interested in blended travel, also known as “bleisure or a “workcation”. Just like the emergence of hybrid work, blended travel allows attendees the opportunity to stack some leisure onto a work trip. And with it, location is key. And the date pattern is crucial.
Consider how your agenda has time for blended travelers to relax and get some work done.
Make it easy to extend into a weekend.
Sunbelt locations are a big plus!
