Dear Peter:

I want to thank you and your staff for the outstanding job you did hosting our three-day event, April 18 19 and 20, 2007. Every detail and need was attended to, and your support contributed to a very successful session for Covenant.

Covenant and the community are very fortunate to have such a top-notch facility at our disposal. The consultants that we used are based in California and travel throughout the world, putting on this type of session. They stated that this was one of the best facilities they have used in their 10 plus years of existence.

Thank you, again, for all your help.

Sincerely,

Joseph J. Ruth, Vise President
Network Development
Covenant HealthCare

"I recently attended the Ahepa Century Dinner that was held at HORIZONS Center. Everyone I know was extremely impressed with the entire evening. The food preparation and service were excellent. Of course, the surroundings and decor were excellent..............

I write this letter, not as a member of the committee since I wasn't involved with it at all, but just as a participant and an observer in the community."

"Each year that I have been with Wolgast, coordinating the Christmas party has been my responsibility. This is the first year I have been able to truly enjoy myself. Your staff was pleasant, efficient and anticipated our every need...leaving me free to relax. I personally found that most remarkable. In my book, that alone puts HORIZONS in a league by itself...."

"Our awards banquet that evening was the best we have had in the 10 years I have been at St. Mary's. I usually subscribe to the French definition of buffet "get your own food" but that's not the HORIZONS definition. The food was hot and tasty and kept that way and the service was exemplary.

........The Human Resources staff was particularly pleased because HORIZONS handled all the decoration and set-ups. In previous years they spent the entire day of the banquet setting things up and and many hours following the banquet cleaning up.

Floyd Johnson
Vice President, Human Resources
St. Mary's Medical Center

".......I live in Rhode Island and was a little nervous planning a party and not being present to oversee everything. Laurie Seibert did a terrific job interpreting what I wanted. Sue Vieau made sure all our wishes were carried out and made sure my mother's day was memorable. Both Lisa and Imed made sure that all our guests needs were attended to. You should be very proud of your staff and their professionalism."

A quick note to express our thanks and gratitude for helping us celebrate Nathan's Bar Mitzvah. Everything was perfect! We received many compliments on the food and the children's buffet was a child's dream come true. The off-site catering was exquisitely displayed. We were so impressed and pleased with the respect and conscientious way in which your staff followed the dietary rules of our Temple. My family was able to enjoy the party at night because we were at ease and confident that HORIZONS catered to all our needs.
