Now that the 2004 Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police Conference (CACP) has come to a close, I would like to send you and the members of your staff, a sincere note of thanks.  Your company is outstanding in many ways, from your professionalism to the courtesy shown to delegates and conference staff alike.
We have been honoured to be this year's host community police department.  For those of us involved in the 2004 CACP Planning Committee, the opportunity of working with you has been among the richest of experiences.  Your continuous and enthusiastic advice during the many months of planning has been wonderfully helpful, and for that I am personally grateful!
Many Chief's of Police, and other delegates who attended this year's conference have expressed to our own Chief Constable Jamie Graham, just how pleased they were, many mentioning the Chief's Appreciation Dinner among the conference's most definite highlights.  Numerous compliments have come to us of how fabulous your banquet offerings were!  Such overwhelmingly positive and enthusiastic feedback is indeed a measure of the result of your culinary talents!
Thank you again David, to you and to all the members of the staff.  Your contribution to the overall success of the conference was invaluable".

"You are amazing.  My team in Vancouver couldn't say enough about how wonderful the food and service were for our Queen's Event at the Pacific Mineral Museum.  In addition to the food being awesome, Patty said your team really paid attention to detail.  Your servers were always there but in a very subtle way.  She was also impressed that you located the VIP's from the start and made sure everyone on your team knew who they were.  I really appreciated your flexibility in rearranging the service plan last minute ... all who came, thoroughly enjoyed.  Thanks again and next time we're in Vancouver, I'll definitely give you a call".

"Thank you (David) for your inspiring contribution to Dining for Dreams 2001 ... your scrumptious creations .. your signature Hors d'oeuvres; Penncove Mussels and d'Anjou Pear Fritters, Sliced Duck Breast on a slice of apple with cranberry compote and Tabasco and Tea smoked Duck ... were completely Devine. We have been blessed with many positive comments from everyone who participated in the evening"

"As always, it (food, drink and presentation) was superb. You met the challenge of special requests - service and supply was outstanding. You not only coped (with last minute changes resulting from civic strike), you made it fun!

The trolley bus idea was superb. The flappers were a great idea in every sense of the word. The decor . . . was right on the money and all enjoyed it very much. 

I have met a lot of dedicated and capable people in the Special Event business. Of them all, there are none who have earned my complete trust as much as you have. Thanks again to you and your team."
