OOO

L'shana tova 5782! 🎉

I’m out of the office today for Rosh Hashana (and the last day of my kids’ five-day weekend). Wishing a smooth re-entry to everyone who is back at their desks today and shana tova to all who observe. 🍎🍯

Open Press Opportunities

Just a note that any opportunity you see in this newsletter is still open and I’m still actively seeking pitches.

• I’m rounding up the best hotels in California’s Napa Valley.

• I’m working on a variety of roundups featuring new venues in each of the following three regions: Las Vegas, Scottsdale/Phoenix, and San Diego. These venues should be new within the last six months and available for event booking (hotels, restaurants, lounges, activity venues, spas, and more). Please include with your pitch a link to interior photos as well as capacity information for full or partial buyout of the space.
