[MumInOhio]

Been changing the spelling around a little as it was close to Meneses...

Currently, there are three salespeople directly contracted by AHATA, Donna Delgado in Washington, Mayline Menendez in Miami and Charly Ibarra in New York.

Pesquera added that AHATA is increasing this sales force with four or five people from NBTC, which is categorized as an extraordinary coverage for our island. “This is a unique alliance in the Caribbean”, he said.

probably not with the ATA, but they are all wrapped up together anyway. I'm not sure that having AHATA in your title makes too much difference except that they deal with the hotel industry and is an off shoot of the Tourism Authority.

Rob...I see I confused myself again! Needed to get myself off the computer, and saw that she was referenced as both MeetAruba and the Convention Bureau. will check a little later, as MeetAruba is a fairly new group. Need to go back and read some of the things I looked at yesterday.

Pita ... Thanks for the info on her! Been in Aruba since 1989 at least, Dutch and opened her business in Fort Lauderdale, not sure when!

I think that 4000 listings on the Chamber records is an awful lot for an island with the population that Aruba has!

TRIVIA...The orange on the Dutch flag was changed to red as the orange would run!

ECO Destination Management Of Aruba Celebrates 20 years

Eco Destination Management celebrated two decades on the island just recently, with founder Wichita Villacres, Owner and C.E.O., orchestrating a day of festivities for her staff members.

Wichita started her career in the worldwide shipping industry and moved to Aruba in 1982. She saw the need for a destination management company here and with that in mind, she taught herself the business, and by 1987, founded Eco Destination Management Services of Aruba.

In 1992, she was named ‘Woman of the Year,’ for her contributions to making the island a true meeting and incentive destination, a market which had never been fully realized before her efforts.

In her quest to explore the possibilities for Aruba, she was recognized in 1990 for her creativity by the Society of Incentive Travel Executives, SITE, with two Crystal Awards, one for organizing legendary Arubadam, a street carnival party, in the heart of Oranjestad and for flawless handling of a 5-night incentive program, for an oversize group.

In addition to her involvement with her business and her family, Wichita is always deeply committed to the community, working in a number of organizations on the betterment of the industry and the island.

She was a board member of the Aruba Hotel and Tourism Association, AHATA; a director of the Society of Incentive Travel Executives, SITE, Caribbean Chapter; President and founder of the Aruba Tourism Scholarship and Awards Foundation; member of Meeting Professionals International, MPI, and member of International Special Event Society, ISES, as well as member of Association of Destination Management Executives, and the SKAL Club, which she recently rejoined, in Miami.

In 2002, Wichita purchased the South East Florida Destination Management Franchise from PRA Destination Management, and by 2006 not only surpassed PRA’s yearly goals but also grew exponentially and became well established within the Florida community.

Hard working, driven and fun, Wichita is an inspiration to those who meet and work with her, she always strives to become the best at whatever she sets out to do.

True to her credo “there is no mountain too high to climb,” it is always entertaining to watch her operate!

                                               

Pictured here Wichita and Aruba’s Minister of Tourism Eng. Edison Briezen at a recent Radisson Aruba Resort & Casino penthouse gala affair in which ECO Destination Management Services of Aruba celebrated 20 years and recognized the minister for his from-the-get-go support and endorsement.

Rob...I will keep on this Wichita Villacres woman. I have found some-one she employed in 2002, Maoreen Every, that graduated from Hollywood Florida highschool. Not sure how the Every name ties in but it showed up on my search of of Wichita. May be more connections to that area, just south of Fort Lauderdale. Heaps out there on her, so I will see where it leads! Won't have a lot of time until maybe Wednesday, but will let you know if it leads anywhere!

Pita has an eye on her as well! Thanks Pita!

[MumInOhio]

Maoreen just happened to graduate from Broward County Community College-South, which is located at 7300 Pines Blvd, Pembroke Pines, FL...which happens to be that college on the top corner of North Perry Airport...College St. - another coincidence. Now I am wondering which school Gabe attended?

Have a great weekend everyone!
