Come see, Mon ami! Mardi Gras was the theme for the Business After Hours held on February 9, 2016 hosted by La Quinta Inn & Suites in Ardmore. Business locals enjoyed a buffet of New Orleans’ favorites, spirits, and live music. The La Quinta staff led tours throughout the newly remodeled hotel and door prizes were given to several lucky winners! Apollo appreciates the hard work by all who made this event a huge success. Laissez les bon temps rouler! Ça c’est bon, Mon cher!

10-‐Years Celebrated by Executive Administrator
Celebrating Years of Service Throughout the Company
Teresa Cavallo, our Corporate Executive Administrator, celebrated her 10-‐year anniversary with Apollo this February. Cavallo began her first position with the company as a Front Desk Service Representative and was later promoted to the General Manager position, which she filled for 5 years. She was then promoted to The Corporate Executive Administrator position in 2014. She assists the Ownership and Management Team in their daily operations and is responsible for Human Resources and Payroll. Ms. Cavallo is a hard working employee and an asset to the company. Apollo is very proud to have her as part of the team. Congratulations on your 10-‐year anniversary with Apollo. We look forward to celebrating many more with you!
On Tuesday, March 8, the Candlewood Suites hosted a luncheon for insurance agents, local emergency personnel, and others involved in emergency relief. Red Dirt Brewhouse provided a delicious meal followed by a brief PowerPoint presentation by Director of Sales, Drew Butler, on the Candlewood Cares Program. This program gives one free night to residents whose homes have been destroyed or damaged by natural disaster. After the first night, the hotel works with the insurance companies setting up billing for guests to stay as long as needed in order to get their homes repaired. “I’m thrilled to get this information out to those who will need it the most,” says Butler. “It’s a great program and many simply do not know about it.” After the presentation, attendees were given a brief tour of the property including various room types. “When they took the tour, their understanding of what makes the Candlewood Suites ideal for the displaced became more clear. The attendees were impressed with the full sized refrigerators along with fully stocked kitchens and could see how Candlewood Suites can truly become a second home while their customers wait on their homes to be repaired.”
