KC Convention Guest Letter Forwarded To TKC

Greetings,

I have recently become aware that there are discussions about changing the Kansas City open catering policy at the convention center. As an event planner, I want to express my concern over this potential change.

In 2014, I brought a week-long event to Kansas City for 5,500 students. This event utilized over 8,000 hotel rooms, over $740,000 in catering to the convention center and various other economic impacts. Having an option to select from a list of caterers was the tipping point for choosing KC. In fact, we had such a good experience, we have already signed to return to KC for the same event in 2018.

We would love to make KC our home for this event every 4 years. However, if the open catering policy changes, we will definitely have to revisit our plans. This is a unique feature that makes KC different in a sea of convention centers across the country.

I am asking that you please work to keep your open catering policy.

Should you have any questions or wish to speak with me further, please contact me using the information listed below.

Blessings,
Laurie
