Visit Delco, PA for Fresh Air & Fresh Ideas


Fresh Air & Fresh Ideas is just one of the new marketing campaigns being introduced by Delaware County’s Official Tourism Promotion Agency, Visit Delco, PA.


Centrally located along the I-95 and I-476 corridors, as well as easily accessible from major cities such as Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore and Wilmington, DE, Delaware County is famous for its rich history, vibrant arts scene, thriving culinary scene and family-friendly attractions. It also is rapidly becoming the premier destination for meetings and events.


Recent Event Profile: Team Building


“A Fortune 100 Company recently held a multiple-day team building event at Tyler Arboretum, just outside of Media,” notes Visit Delco, PA executive director Steve Byrne, adding that Tyler is one of America’s oldest arboreta and attracts more than 70,000 visitors per year.


This event included a variety of programs, extensive food and bever- age service, breakout areas and lots of “fresh air” options, such as hik- ing trails, nature exploration and meadows for activities, lectures and reflection.


According to Tyler’s communications manager, Gary Bloomer, “We were excited to be chosen to host the event, and the company was effusive in their gratitude and praise for our facilities and flexibil- ity. The key to success lies in being flexible and in being open to possi- bilities. It’s simply a case of focusing on offering a positive customer experience.”


Byrne and the Visit Delco, PA team are looking forward to the upcoming “Meet Me in Delco” event to be held at the newly renovated Inn at Villanova on October 21, 2019. The event will offer educational programming for up-and-coming meeting planners, as well as the opportunity for established professionals from the tri-state area to network with Delaware County hoteliers, caterers and attractions that offer meeting and event spaces and services.


Byrne noted, “By reaching out to both seasoned meeting professionals and newcomers, we’re hoping our tourism and hospitality partners will build relationships that will encourage and inspire fresh ideas in Delaware County for years to come.”


Space is limited. Meeting planners interested in attending are invited to register online at: visitdelcopa.com/meet-me-in-delco
