New Stuff for The Employee Network

We've been busy this summer. Logo changes, web design changes, added a search bar all while also bringing on new Merchants and New Corporate Partners. Its been an exciting time!

Watch for something even more exciting coming soon. We can't tell you yet but something big is about to happen.

Our Road Show Season begins September 27 in Vegas! We'll be there all week with 4 awesome events. We really look forward to Road Show Season when we get to see all our friends again while making new friends at the same time.

Westin La Paloma Resort in Tucson

Tena and I found this awesome Resort in Tucson! Even better, Westin's La Paloma is on The Employee Network and we get a great employee discount. We were looking for a place not to far from Phoenix to celebrate our 17th Wedding Anniversary. It only took about an hour and forty minutes from Chandler to get there. I remember speaking to Dawn who handled our reservation. She was very helpful and knowledgeable about the property. After speaking to her I knew this is where we needed to spend this very important anniversary.


Checking in was a breeze. Trish at the front desk was great. Its obvious their employees are happy and seem eager to share that happiness.

We got a suite with an awesome view of the golf course and mountains. After unpacking, we went to the lobby to explore the possibilities for our evening. While standing around in the front lobby deciding which way to go, this nice lady Sandy came over and introduced herself as one of the managers and offered us suggestions of how to start our festivities. First she suggested that the Red Door Spa had a complimentary chair massage in the Azul Lounge so we both got in a celebratory chair  massage to start our night. We sat in front of this huge window and watched this unbelievable sunset on the mountains in front of us while sipping some lovely adult beverages.

Chris, the restaurant manager, came by our table when he found out it was our anniversary and introduced us to a nice bottle of bubbly and the menu. We had a romantic dinner at Azul there on the property while we watched the rest of the sunset.

The pools were awesome and they even have a really fun slide and a salt water lap pool too. Tena was excited to find that they have racket ball and I found their workout room to be complete with more than enough equipment to keep me busy.

The swim up bar and deli reminded me of when we were married in the Caribbean. We ordered room service for breakfast. We were really pleased when they said 20 minutes and they were actually there in 20 minutes. They had lots of activities like golf and tennis that we did not have time for but we're already talking about going again. While I could go on and on, I know you will enjoy this place and its friendly staff.  Hello to my other special friends Carrie, Mark, Frank and Diane who all just added more fun to this very special occasion!  Cheers!

The end of the Spring Road Shows

Another awesome Road Show Season! 18 unbelievable events in just the span of Spring 2010. We visited with thousands of really cool people during this time. Our Members had unprecedented opportunities to get to know many of our Merchant Merchant Partners, while our our Merchant Partners were able to showcase their various businesses like never before.

Our last Show of season was at The City of Chandler. We really had a great time with our Employee Network Car Show. Chandler Fire brought out 2 Engines and Chandler PD showed off their Police Chevelle Race Car and their Armored Vehicle. Our little Red Roadster was there with Trailer and several new cars from San Tan Subaru, Five Star Ford, Thorobred Chevrolet and San Tan Honda. RV Rental outlet brought out a 31 foot RV and we even managed to fit Mazatzal Hotel & Casino's wrapped van as well. Tunes were playing and balloons were plentiful as always.

Even Chandler Fire took a few minutes out for some cutting up in The Employee Network Car! 

We took lots of great pictures all during the season. Check out the "Past Events" category on The Employee Network and look for pictures of yourself and your friends. A must see are the pictures from North Vista Hospital in Las Vegas. Sonya from SeaWorld brought animals, the pictures are great!

We greatly appreciate all that were involved in making this Road Show Season 1 of the best ever. Thank you from all of us to our Awesome Employee Members for making us feel so welcomed. Thank you to our Corporate Benefits people for doing such an outstanding job getting the word out about The Employee Network and our Road Show visits and thank you to all Merchant Partners for your professionalism and dedication for without you all, we would be not...

We look forward to the upcoming Fall Road Show season. Wishing you a great summer from The Employee Network!!!!

North Vista Hospital event May 2010

Check this out! This a picture from our Road Show Event at North Vista Hospital in Las Vegas. It was really extra cool as our awesome SeaWorld Rep Sonya Wade was able to arange to bring animals to our event. It was great to visit this facility for the 1st time. The North Vista staff that visited were really welcoming and made us feel like family. Melissa and the HR people did a great job getting the word out to everybody there. I think we met most of their Employees while we were there. Our Merchant Partners were really happy at the reception we recieved. It was a great way to end our Nevada Spring Season.
