The GBTA St. Louis Board of Directors continues to work strategically, utilizing their combined expertise to strengthen the chapter’s position as a leader in the travel industry. Here are some recent highlights:
Holiday Gala
The annual Holiday Gala was a night to remember, filled with cheer and festivity! Held at the magical rooftop of 360 Westport, members and guests came together to celebrate a successful 2024.
A highlight of the evening was the silent auction, where all proceeds supported the GBTA St. Louis Chapter Scholarship Fund, contributing to the growth and development of our industry.
GBTA Leadership Summit
The GBTA St. Louis Chapter was proud to host the 21st Annual GBTA U.S Chapter Leadership Summit! This event welcomed over 200 U.S. Chapter volunteer leaders from across the country for two impactful days of learning. The program included professional development, networking, and collaboration, all aimed at strengthening and enhancing GBTA’s 38 U.S. Chapter organizations.
A huge thank you to the historic St. Louis Union Station Hotel for graciously hosting this incredible group. The hotel’s stunning setting provided the perfect backdrop for collaboration, learning, and networking.
Even more, this event wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible support of our dynamic sponsors: The Parking Spot, St. Louis Union Station Hotel, Explore St. Louis, Greater St. Louis, Inc., and Switch.
