2007NYCAHC EXECUTIVE BOARD

3

The New York City Association of Hotel Concierges is pleased toannounce the first annual “Concierge Choice Awards.”

The Concierge Choice Awards will recognize New York Cityinstitutions and businesses that create superior visitor experiencesfor the guests of our hotels. The nominees and winners will notnecessarily be the biggest, the oldest or the most famous in themetropolitan area; they will be establishments or individuals whowe, the concierge community at large will choose. The process willculminate in a magnificent evening of winners, honored nomineesand a new found respect for our award winning choices.

The New York City Association of Hotel Concierge has asked City Guide Magazine to host theawards dinner where the nominees will be announced.

City Guide has laid the foundation and assisted in our semi-annual fundraising endeavors formany years; most recently, Café Society where we raised nearly $35,000 for the Les Clefs d’ORfoundation and the NYCAHC crisis fund.

No other city in the United States has ever asked the Concierge community for their feedback insuch celebrated fashion. We are eager to be leaders and we look forward to sharing with youour first annual Concierge choice awards and continuing our relationship for many years to come.

Sincerely,

Mary T. MurphyPresident for the New York City Association of Hotel Concierges
