Joule was a beautiful location and host for our March luncheon. Guests were able to enjoy the delicious lunch from Butler's Pantry and learn more about extending their event season past St. Louis' traditional tourism season. A big thank you to our panelists for sharing with us as well: Katy Enrique and Kelly Tecklenburg with Six Flags, and Julia Row with the St. Louis Cardinals.
A special thank you to our panel, Joule and The Gateway Arch!
