PROST Desert Cities has taken the difficult decision to change our February Luncheon from in-person to a Virtual Online "Zoom" Event. This will take place as a Happy Hour at 4pm on Thursday, February 3rd. Advanced registration for our Virtual Happy Hour is required by Wednesday, February 2nd.

To register, please click on this link: https://us06web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0tc-ihpjgpE9yRIoSSKMjl4Tq5O5EmOoT2

Once you have completed the registration form in full, you will receive a confirmation email with all the joining details for the event.

Our Virtual Happy Hour will commence at 4:00pm and our "waiting room" will be open from 3:45pm. Registered members and guests will be "checked-in" individually and in order of logging-in prior to entering the meeting. We truly want the check-in process to be as smooth as possible so your patience and understanding are so very much appreciated. Please try to log-in a few minutes prior to 4;00pm.

Our speaker for our Virtual Happy Hour will be Andrea Schneider, Account Director, Los Angeles Sales Office, FAENA HOTEL MIAMI BEACH.

One lucky travel advisor will win a 2 night stay in an Ocean View Junior Suite with Daily Full Breakfast for Two in Los Fuegos ($100 daily morning value) with the daily Resort Fee waived as well (valid through 2/3/23)

We look forward to seeing you "virtually" on February 3rd, and don't forget your beverage of choice for our PROST Toast!!

Please be advised that the Luncheon scheduled for January 6, 2022 has been cancelled. Everyone that paid to attend the January event will have their money transferred and will be applied to the next luncheon you attend.

Given the current increase in Covid-19 cases and the fact that the CDC is indicating that the peak of this most recent wave will not likely happen until after our scheduled date of January 6, the PROST Desert Cities Board has taken the difficult decision to cancel the January Luncheon.

The safety of our members and guests remain a top priority.

The Board would like to wish everyone a safe and happy New Year!
