Our Centennial is not just a milestone for AH&LA, but a celebration of the industry’s legacies and a commitment to the next generation of hospitality leaders. And our calendar reflects just that.
Kicking off at the Inaugural Gala honoring AH&LA Incoming Chairman David Kong and extending all the way throughout 2010, events and initiatives across the country will be taking place – and you’re invited.

As a means to introduce high school students to the wide range of exciting opportunities found in the hotel industry, AH&LA has long since embraced this annual event. But this year we’re taking it up a notch. The association has aggressively committed to reaching out to 100 schools throughout 2010. So we’re building off the Centennial’s momentum to generate more participation in National Groundhog Job Shadow Day than ever before.
We’re encouraging our members to participate in this event by allowing students to tour their facilities or to offer themselves as speakers to local high schools. For more information on participating, click here.
