Read testimonials from a few of our previous meeting hosts about the after effect of hosting at their location.
“Hosting the 2025 Greater Northeast Motorcoach Association (GNEMA) Spring Meeting at Wind Creek Bethlehem was a defining moment for both our organization and the Lehigh Valley. The event brought together leading operators, vendors, and industry professionals, offering them the opportunity to experience not only our premier venue but also the vibrant culture and hospitality of the region.
The benefits of hosting GNEMA at Wind Creek Bethlehem were substantial. It created new business opportunities, expanded our professional network, and further highlighted the essential role of motorcoach travel throughout the Northeast. Our team was proud to welcome and support such an important gathering, and we were honored to be part of an event that showcased strength and collaboration within the motorcoach industry.
This event was a true reflection of the unity and momentum within the Greater Northeast motorcoach community—and Wind Creek Bethlehem was proud to play a key role in making it all possible.”

"Hosting the 2024 GNEMA Annual Spring Meeting offered Bucks County exceptional exposure. Hosting a meeting of this caliber not only fostered a platform for networking, collaboration and knowledge exchange amongst participants but also provided a unique opportunity to forge meaningful connections and advance the group tour industry, all while positively impacting the local economy.
As the host organization, Visit Bucks County collaborated closely with GNEMA's leadership and staff to shape the meeting's content and programming, with special events added to further showcase the group-friendly attractions and activities Bucks County has to offer.
The benefits of hosting this meeting have led to increased tourism and business opportunities in the group tour sector."

"We had the pleasure of hosting the 2024 GNEMA Annual Spring Meeting a few weeks ago and let me say what an honor it was to open our doors and invite such a wide array of guests to our Village.
Pattie and the GNEMA team were so helpful along the way and were very detailed in what they were looking for and the information that I needed to host such events. If there was a question to be asked, we knew the answer wasn’t far away.
We gained such great exposure not only for Peddler’s Village but beautiful Bucks County, PA. I spoke to so many guests that had not been here before and they were simply blown away by all our offerings. From shopping, to dining, to relaxing and staying in our on-property Inn they couldn’t say enough wonderful things about it here. That type of exposure you can only get from a person-to-person referral and I’m so hopeful there will be so many.
Peddler’s Village has benefited from hosting the GNEMA meeting as we gained valuable insight into the motorcoach business and what they are looking for and can be expected. The guests from this event came from all over the country and to be able to showcase our Village and what we offer to them is what our business is all about. Exceptional customer service and visitor happiness!
We know that hosting this event made us, as a business, stronger and will allow us to host many more multi-day large scale events in the future. It gave us such hands-on experience that we can only gain from these types of events. We are grateful for this opportunity and can’t wait to see what it brings us in the future."
