It’s that time of year again! IHRSA’s 34th annual convention and trade show kicks off today, so right now I’m on a plane, careening at 550 miles per hour towards the great city of Los Angeles.
And I can’t wait to get there — not just because I’m a bit of a nervous flier. Actually, I’m impatient because at the end of the day, there’s nothing greater than having the opportunity to come together as an industry to celebrate trends, successes, triumphs, evolutions and more.
Who or what am I most excited to see?
In the “who” category, that would have to include Arianna Huffington, president and editor-in-chief of Huffington Post Media Group and this year’s keynote speaker. Huffington will be discussing “The Third Metric That Can Benefit Your Bottom Line,” and what she has to say is sure to be compelling.
In the “what” category, that’s hard to say. I’m sure there will be tons of new products and programs for me to tweet and post about, so be sure to follow Club Solutions on Twitter and Facebook. My staff writer and I will be at the helm, bringing you live updates on what’s happening on the tradeshow floor as they occur.
Oh, and if you’re at the show, stop by booth #758, Club Solution Magazine’s booth. We’d love to see you. If you do, pick up a copy of the March 2015 issue featuring Active Sports Clubs’ Dream Team. In addition to great features, inside you’ll find tons of information on new products and companies — you don’t want to miss it!
Until then.
