Director of sales for Bear Creek Mountain Resort and Conference Center, Erin Visco- Chapman, points to the uniqueness of the resort as the main reason planners meet here.


Its suites range from executive to


loft-style, and incredible mountain views can be appreciated from corner-to-corner of the resort’s main building.


Bear Creek is situated in Macungie, PA and features a modern building along a moun- tainside setting that makes every aspect of the property unique. In addition to skiing and snowboarding, the resort offers tennis courts, hiking and biking trails, golf and volleyball to inspire the inner athlete in every guest. Meanwhile, the spa and heat- ed outdoor swimming pool provide a per- fect venue for relaxation.


Ability to Create Initiatives


In his experience, Breaux said, for inde- pendent meeting venues like Lansdowne Resort, “No one situation is identical to another. Common sense and overall all customer satisfaction must prevail.”


He adds, “Most out-of-the-box decisions can be made faster at independent prop- erties, as there is less of a hierarchical structure.” Breaux goes on to note that these properties rely more heavily on an “entrepreneurial” spirit.


Bear Creek speaks to that entrepreneurial spirit by separating itself through its Green Initiative, which strives to reduce the venue’s environmental impact by increas- ing recycling on site and reducing its over- all carbon footprint. According to Visco- Chapman, “Bear Creek is a resort where environmental sustainability goes hand- in-hand with luxurious comfort and superb service.”


The restaurants and catering department at Bear Creek serve directly from the resort’s organic vegetable and herb gar- dens. Chefs order from local vendors to eliminate long-haul shipments of food, beverages and supplies, helping to reduce the property’s carbon footprint. In addi- tion, the grounds crew does not use syn- thetic pesticides or herbicides when maintaining the trails and gardens of Bear Creek Resort.
