John Unwin, NHLA Chairman of the Board
General Manager
Caesars Palace

Dear NHLA Member,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to thank you for your continued support of the Nevada Hotel & Lodging Association (NHLA). The strength of our association comes from everyone's participation and the support we give one another. There is a great deal of respect for NHLA throughout the country, and you can be proud to be a part of this organization.

Through your membership, NHLA continues its leadership role in Nevada's largest industry - tourism. This 25 plus year-old statewide Association now represents more than 400 lodging properties and suppliers that have over 150,000 employees throughout Nevada. Details on NHLA Members can be found in the Member Search.

This year the NHLA focuses on its new website. With this launch our goal is to add a Governmental Affairs section, as well as industry related news stories and visibility opportunities for our members. For ease of use we have divided the site into four sections: Association, Travel Nevada, Industry Information, and Suppliers.

As we continue to develop this site, there are several areas that you can now take advantage. Our Member Resources page, allows NHLA members to view legal bulletins, important industry survey information, current issues of AHLA and NHLA newsletters, our Lending Library catalog, and past committee meeting minutes. Our Calendar of Events section provides you with all of the up-to-date information on NHLA events. The Job Bank area of our site allows you to post your job openings, which will help increase the number of prospective job candidates who may apply.

NHLA's Allied Members, the suppliers to the industry, can be accessed via the Buyer's Guide, which offers a keyword search for any part of a name, product or description. NHLA also proudly offers a special partnership with Allied Members as part of its Money Savings Program. These members provide other members with special service and money-saving opportunities.

These are just a few of the many benefits that NHLA 's Website offers. I encourage you to take the time to browse the site and then check back from time to time for the new additions and improvements.

If you haven't done so, consider becoming an NHLA member. Submit a request for information form to learn more about joining our unified voice for Nevada tourism.

Sincerely,

John Unwin ,
Chairman of the Board
