Yesterday evening's Welcome Reception served as the official launch of AAHOACON21, with attendees and exhibitors gathering en masse at the The Exchange and Jaxon Beer Garden for a fun evening of reconnecting with one another for the first time in quite a while.

Throughout the night, The Exchange and Jaxon Beer Garden were awash in AAHOA shirts, as guests mingled and soaked up the atmosphere of the evening in celebration of the hospitality industry's resilience and fortitude.

Thank you to everyone who attended and for making it an evening to remember. We hope you saved some energy for today's events.
