Jill Larson– Sales & Event Manager

“I've planned these types of meetings for years now and this is the first time I've felt more like an attendee than the event organizer. I did not have to worry about anything regarding food/beverage, setup times, AV equipment working, rooms being set up correctly, etc. Everything was taken care of.

The staff was friendly and genuinely happy that we held our event at the Highland Conference Center. I don't recall being thanked for our business at other locations by people other than management. More than once, set-up crew thanked us for choosing the conference center- a sign of a great

team and happy employees.” ~ Innovative Systems

“The Event Coordinator was excellent to work with as was her staff. Very accommodating and beautiful facility. Our organization would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a great place to host an event.”`~ Horizon Healthcare
