When it comes time to step back, unwind and refresh your outlook on your professional practice you want to do so in an atmosphere that is conducive to both leisure and learning. Many professional groups and organizations have found that one of the best places to do this is at The Wildhorse Resort and Casino located in Pendleton Oregon.
This beautiful casino and resort, situated just outside historic Pendelton, made famous by its nationally recognized rodeo, and only minutes away from the McKay Creek National Wildlife Refuge, provides 18,000 square feet of professional meeting space equipped with state-of-the- art AV equiptment, tech support and audio capabilties for meetings, conferences and events for groups of 4 to 400. Combine this with over 200 hotel rooms, fine dining, a 24 hour café, an 18 hole golf course, Cineplex theater and children’s entertainment center and arcade and you have the perfect location to enjoy a mini professional get away.
“We want to make sure our customers have a positive experience and we offer one of the best meeting and event venues in the state” said Diane Long, Advertising Manager for Wildhorse Resort and Casino.
“Often large groups come to the resort for a variety of choices and exceptional service,” Long said. Clients like Bank of Eastern Oregon and Oregon Economic Development Association, as well as Fairwinds Leisure Care have all given rave reviews.
“Wildhorse hosted our most successful annual conference to date”, shared Jody Christensen, President of the Oregon Economic Development Association.
The 10-story hotel is chock-full of upscale amenities selected for guests’ comfort. “Every detail of this hotel was carefully selected and designed with our guests in mind,” said Roy Jones, Director of Lodging for Wildhorse Resort & Casino. The design of everything in the hotel, from the rooms to the lobby, reflect the culture of the local tribes. Many of the ideas were garnered while the architects and designers visited Tamastslikt Cultural Institute. The headboards in the rooms and the lighting in the lobby were made to resemble a patchwork leather robe, lighting in the lobby was made to resemble native drums, tiles and textiles used throughout represent natural materials used by the tribes. “The small details are what make this property so stunning,” said Jones.
