Autopsies. Gross, right? The only thing worse is not doing them. What kept my event business from being profitable? Where did all that revenue go? After labor costs, food costs, liquor costs, rentals and utilities, how much of that big $30,000 wedding my club hosted actually hit the bottom line. Or did any of it? Post-event "examinations" can tell us how and why it happened. Proper planning can prevent those untimely deaths from occurring and provide a healthy prescription for a club's future weddings and special events. #countryclubs #clubs #profitability #golfindustry

I absolutely love event day. It’s the culmination of countless hours spent carefully orchestrating every detail, often unnoticed by anyone but your team. For an entire year, you and your colleagues work tirelessly—perfecting everything, from the timing of food service to the color of the lights to create an unforgettable experience for your guests. Only your team knows the true story behind each decision—the countless walkthroughs of the venue to ensure the right signage directs people seamlessly, so no one has to think about anything other than enjoying themselves. Only your team knows the creativity behind a simple piece of folded cardboard hidden beneath a sequin tablecloth, stabilizing a cocktail table to ensure a guest's drink stays intact. Only your team understands the hours spent perfecting every aspect of the auction setup, making sure it looks flawless down to the last detail. Only your team knows the pressure of making that last-minute change, just 20 minutes before the doors open, and the commitment to making it work seamlessly. But if you’re lucky, you get to agonize over these details because you know it will make a difference. You get to pour your heart into an event that fuels a cause you truly believe in. And if you’re really lucky, your hard work helps change the life of a child, battling an unimaginable diagnosis, by doing something you love. 🤍 #CheersforBrennerChildrens #BrennerChildrensHospital Atrium Health Levine Children's Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist Atrium Health

Christmas revellers in Liverpool are being asked the stark question of ‘Who’s taking you home?’ in a hard-hitting campaign aiming to stop people drink or drug driving this festive season. A bus, taxi, police car, ambulance and hearse lined up on Liverpool’s iconic waterfront on Wednesday 11 December as the public were asked ‘Which vehicle will you be getting into?’ Liverpool City Council has worked in partnership with other Local Authorities and partners across the Liverpool City Region to show the dramatic visual image of the six vehicles illustrating the consequences Christmas revellers face if they take the wrong options. The hearse was a particularly stark symbol of the impact of drink or drug driving and how it can ruin lives. Data from the Department for Transport shows the number of people killed in drink-drive collisions reached a 13-year high in 2022. Between 290 and 320 people were killed in drink-drive collisions in 2022, with a central estimate of 300 fatalities. The estimate is the highest since 2009 and represents an increase from 2021 – when there were 260 fatalities. Cllr Dan Barrington, Liverpool City Council Cabinet Member for Transport and Connectivity, said: “It’s vital that we promote safety on our roads, particularly at this time of year. “Christmas sees an increase in social gatherings and the festive atmosphere can sometimes foster a sense of complacency around the risks of impaired driving. “Additionally, increased traffic volumes coupled with the presence of vulnerable road users, such as pedestrians, significantly increases the potential for accidents. “The consequences of drink or drug driving are severe, so public awareness campaigns such as this are crucial in deterring people from driving under the influence.” Police Commissioner Emily Spurrell said: “We already know that too many people are killed or injured on our roads each year, but one road death is one too many. “Sadly, many fatal collisions are avoidable, and anybody who chooses to get behind the wheel whilst under the influence of drink or drugs is selfish. They are not only putting themselves at risk, but are also endangering the lives of other innocent road users and pedestrians. “The festive season means more parties and social gatherings, so its imperative people act with caution and think about whether they are in the right position to drive. It only takes seconds to ruin a life on our roads and the devastation for the victim’s family lasts a lifetime. Please use public transport, or book a taxi, if you are having a drink.  “I would also appeal to families, friends and colleagues – speak up if you feel your designated driver shouldn’t be getting behind the wheel. We all have a responsibility to look out for one another – it’s this approach that will keep everybody safe and mean we should all make it home to spend a special time with our families.”
