Reservations - Organizations can utilize the convenient Online Housing Reservation System. This service allows your attendees to make their hotel reservations fast and easy on www.greenbay.com. Hotel reservation confirmations are sent immediately, so your attendees can feel at ease. This service is provided at no cost to the meeting planner.

Registration - Don't get overwhelmed at registration time. For groups using 100 or more hotel room nights, the CVB offers pre-printed name badges, professional volunteer registration assistance, and visitor information packets. For groups of 400 or more, the CVB can display an information booth with restaurant and entertainment options for attendees.

Welcome and Greetings - Making your delegates feel welcome is the most important mission of the CVB. A welcome sign can be placed at Austin Straubel International Airport, and greeters can be on hand to extend a warm welcome and assist with transportation questions. Arrangements can also be made to have a city official write a welcome letter for your attendee welcome packets, or give a personal welcome address at one of your functions.

Publicity - Upon request, the CVB will distribute your press release to the local media to help promote your event being held in the area. When applicable, regional and statewide releases can also be sent.

Entertainment and Speakers - Whether you're looking for a motivational speaker, a light-hearted act or a vocal group, the CVB has a wide variety of contacts to help in your meeting success.

Programs and Activities - Don't let your event be all work and no play. When it comes to finding activities that are a good fit for your group, just ask the CVB. From full day itineraries to one hour activities, they can make referrals to match your needs including: golf tournaments, specialized hands-on arts activities, cooking demos, attraction tours, fishing expeditions, shopping excursions and bus transportation. Guided City Tours are also available as well as the very unique Packers Heritage Trail Tour, Green Bay Ghost Tour, and Oneida Nation Tour.

Meeting Planner Site Visits - The CVB staff will gladly coordinate site inspections of hotel properties and meeting facilities, including accommodation arrangements, agenda and staff escort.
