Cleveland rocks!

Ok, I know it's not the most inspired of headlines, but I think it's a good sentiment to kick off a new era of the ASBPE Cleveland chapter.

My name is Stephanie Ricca, and I'm your new blog host (hostess?). I am the editor in chief of Hotel Management magazine, and the new Cleveland chapter president.

Cleveland has a fantastic history of ASBPE greatness, and I think it's important now more than ever for us to communicate, share ideas and use each other as resources. Oh, and have fun. We are journalists, right?

To that end, I'll be reaching out to current Cleveland chapter members in the next few weeks with the goal of announcing a date and time for a Cleveland chapter happy hour. We'll get together and reconnect, and start brainstorming ideas for future projects.

Please email me (sricca at questex dot com) if you'd like to be part of the planning team. I look forward to a fantastic Cleveland chapter.
