Hello readers,
It’s time for spring savings with two deals we rounded up for the end of March and April.
First is the Pick Your Perks program from the spacious Oak Brook Hills Resort-Chicago, an IACC Certified Conference Center with a strong 25-year history. On-site are 36 meeting venues and more than 42,550 square feet of conference space as well as 386 guest rooms. As well, the resort hosts the 18-hole Audubon Championship Golf Course.
For the next few weeks, the property is offering special incentives for meeting planners. Simply book your corporate session by April 30 and pick from one of the following perks; book 100 room nights or more and you get to pick two of the following perks:
-One-hour complimentary welcome reception
-One complimentary room night per 25 booked
-25% allowable attrition
-$25 resort credit per conference stay during your meeting (resort credit can also be used toward master or guest folio)
*Note, this offer is valid for new bookings only and cannot be combined with any other offers.

The other great deal we found this month is at Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse whose flagship location on Rush Street is offering deals, prizes and new menu items in honor of its 25th Anniversary. Starting March 27, the “25 Days of Gibsons” kicks off with a special raffle drawing, which will take place daily at 5 p.m. (winners will be notified by e-mail).
Winners will receive two tickets to the 2014 Chicago Gourmet with one-night hotel accommodations as well as a $250 gift card to Gibsons Bar & Steakhouse. The grand prize, drawn on the final day, April 21, will offer a luxury, all expense paid trip for four to Napa Valley including first class airfare, deluxe accommodations in San Francisco and Napa Valley, dining, wine tours, barrel tastings and other education sessions at the vineyards. Interested participants can enter the raffle electronically now.
In addition to the raffle, Gibsons has a special offer for its 25-day celebration. The Chicago location will offer $25 bottles of its Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon, and on April 21, all steaks on their menu will be offered for $25, including the brand-new addition of the Gibsons Prime Angus steak 42 Chop, named for long-time patron, Chicago Bears’ 1943 NFL MVP Sid Luckman. Reservations are highly recommended.
Happy Birthday, Gibsons and Happy Planning!
