SLAA May 20, 2026 Lunch Meeting

Join us on Wednesday, May 20th at Grant's Farm as we honor the outstanding recipients of the 2026 SLAA Spirit of St. Louis Awards and the Carole Moody Scholarship. This special event recognizes individuals and organizations that have gone above and beyond through the Individual, Program and Hall of Fame Spirit Awards, while also supporting the future of our industry by awarding a deserving student with the Carole Moody Scholarship.

In addition to celebrating this year's honorees, attendees will enjoy an engaging presentation from Joshua Routh.

Creating Human Moments Guests Remember
Attractions have a unique power: they don't just provide entertainment, they create memories. In this fast-moving age of AI, the human side of service matters more than ever. Joshua Routh will share a practical, energetic message on how attraction teams can use sincerity, connection, and small intentional moments to create memorable guest experiences. Drawing from his work with Lodging Hospitality Management and his new book The S Word, Joshua will offer immediately useful tools leaders can bring back to their teams to strengthen culture, improve service, and create more meaningful guest interactions.
