The Cove is a Toys for Tots Drop-Off Location

What better way to get in the Christmas spirit this year then to help someone in need? Well that's just what we are doing here at The Cove of Lake Geneva and we would love your help.

Through the US Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots Program, The Cove will once again be accepting new, unwrapped toys that will be distributed to the children in the community to help them experience the joys of Christmas.

The U.S. Marine Corps Reserve's goal with the 'Toys for Tots Program' is to promote a message of hope to the less fortunate children. They do it with the anticipation that these children will grow up to become responsible citizens by learning about the generous gifts community members can bring to one another.

The ultimate success of this program depends on the generosity of the community and their gracious donations, with not only the intention to help children in need, but to unite all members of this community.

The toy collection will run from November to December here at The Cove.

Stay at The Cove of Lake Geneva and 'Beat the Heat'!

The Cove of Lake Geneva is once again a proud sponsor of Southeastern Wisconsin's 'Beat the Heat' program this summer!

'Beat the Heat' is a safe, controlled environment where all licensed drivers between the ages of 16 and 20 are given an opportunity to drag race against area police officers and their friends. 'Beat the Heat' takes place at the Union Grove Raceway on select Saturdays throughout the summer (see the upcoming races below).

Here's what the program is about:

This program was originally designed to educate youth about the dangers of alcohol and substance abuse while operating a vehicle, and has evolved into a program that keeps teens from illegally drag racing, which is equally as dangerous. So rather than street racing, this gives teens a safe and controlled environment to fulfill their need for racing at high speeds.

Here's how it works:

Licensed drivers are invited to come out to the track on race day, where they will need to sign up. If you're under the age of 16, you will need to have a parent or legal guardian with you the first time to get you signed up. Next, you will have your vehicle inspected to make sure it meets all the guidelines set by NHRA. If you've never raced here before, and want to learn a little more about what to expect, there will be police officers and other racers available to talk you through what to expect. Then it's time to hit the track! Trophies are awarded at every race and awards are given to the top point earners at the end of the season.

Upcoming Races held from 11am to 3pm:

-July 23rd
-August 6th
-August 13th
-August 27th
-September 24th

For more information about 'Beat the Heat', visit www.sewbeatheat.org.

Traveling with Children? Be Sure to Book a Kid-Friendly Hotel!

When traveling with children, your hotel room will most likely get a lot of use due to naps, changing clothes, meal and snack times, etc. At the same time, you will also want to book a hotel room that is close to activities, as children tend to get worn out more quickly with lots of transportation, and you will want them fresh for the activities you have planned.

Below are a few kid-friendly features you should look for when booking your room:

- Large rooms that will give your kids enough room to move around and play.
- A separate seating area away from the beds/bedrooms that will allow the adults a place to hang out while children nap.
- Kid friendly restaurants that are onsite, or within walking distance, to avoid having to get kids in and out of the car, which can sometimes be a hassle within itself.
- A pool and/or other kid friendly amenities such as organized children's activities.
- Free wireless internet, as it's a great and quiet way for you to be entertained while your children are asleep.
- A refrigerator that will come in handy for storing drinks and refrigerated snacks.
- A kitchen that can be used to cook meals and snacks. This is also a plus because your family will save money by not having to eat out at every meal.
- A location which is within walking distance to markets, restaurants, coffee shops, etc., to pick up quick essentials.

Overall, whatever your budget, you should look for an accommodation in a central location that is close to attractions and offers easily accessible transportation or is so close to attractions, no transportation is needed.

If you are planning a summer vacation this year to Lake Geneva and are looking for a hotel which encompasses the above features, but sure to check out The Cove of Lake Geneva at www.cove-lake-geneva.com.

Holiday Story Contest Winner

We had recently asked you to submit your funny, embarrassing, dreadful, or outrageous story from this holiday season for your chance to win a two night stay at The Cove of Lake Geneva! The top three stories have since been voted on and the following story is the winner of our contest:

This holiday season was pretty awesome all around. Between my wife and I, we ended up celebrating five different Christmases between both of our families - and our parents aren't even divorced. Almost all of them went smoothly... with one exception.

Shortly after December 25th had actually passed, my wife and I drove to visit her parents and see some of our friends in Nebraska. We're from Minnesota so it's only about a 6-hour drive. We had spent all of our other "Christmases" near home so this was our opportunity to go back to the town where my wife grew up and celebrate with her family. If only I'd known what I was about to see...

On the first morning of our visit, we woke up a little bit on the late side. We stay with her parents in my wife's old bedroom when we come to town. As I was walking down the hall toward the kitchen, my Father-in-Law was walking in front of me. I don't remember why it caught my eye, but I noticed that I really liked his jeans and thought briefly that I'd like to have a pair like them. So I did what every normal person does, I zoomed in my vision on the tag on the back of the pants... it read "Aeropostale". Making that mental note, I thought to myself "Wow, he went shopping at Aeropostale?" My Father-in-Law is a full-blooded Italian man in his late 60's ... not exactly Aeropostale's key demographic.

Then I realized that they looked a tad familiar... WAY too familiar. In fact, I realized, I had owned a pair EXACTLY LIKE THEM. And then the kicker.... I realized I last saw those jeans LAST CHRISTMAS, at my in-laws house, when I had hung them up to dry after SHOVELING THEIR DRIVEWAY!

MY FATHER-IN-LAW HAD STOLEN MY PANTS!!!!

Although I was a little flabbergasted, I thought to myself "I should give him the benefit of the doubt. Maybe they just look like my old jeans." And I did, until later that day when I pondered the reality that my father-in-law is a full 6 inches shorter than me. My jeans would never fit him... they'd be way too long. The only way that he could pull off this ridiculous feat would be to have the jeans hemmed. So I snuck a quick peek at the bottoms of the pants when he leaned back in his chair at the kitchen table .... Sure enough, the thread used was DARK BLACK, which was a stark contrast to the light tan that was used on the rest of the pants. There it was... the smoking gun.

I thought briefly about saying something to him but then thought he'd probably be a little embarrassed (and I'm a little scared of him). So I let it go and didn't say anything. However, I couldn't keep from telling my wife and our friends who we saw later that night - it was too much to hold inside.

As though that weren't bad enough, my father-in-law proceeded to wear those jeans in front of me for THE ENTIRE WEEKEND!!! Not only was it a little gross that he wore the same pants three days in a row, but that's just mean. I mean, seriously, he had to have known they weren't his jeans when he had them hemmed. And they probably got tipped off when my wife called their house after we left last Christmas and asked if they'd seen my missing jeans. "No," they replied. "We don't see his jeans anywhere here. Maybe you lost them somewhere else." Yeah... right.

My two post-holiday wishes for all of you are: 1) I hope your in-laws didn't steal and re-tailor any of your clothes this year, and 2) if they did, I sure hope they had the decency to at least try to hide if from you!

Unbelievable.

Thank you all for your entries and congratulations to our winner!

Enjoy a Christmas Away from Home this Year

Celebrating the holidays away from home at a travel destination? Spending a family Christmas vacation at a resort can be a wonderful way to celebrate the holidays and can be a great way to break out of the ordinary! Be sure to follow these few tips to make sure you don't miss a step to ensuring your family has a wonderful holiday vacation away from home!

1.Play Santa
Be sure to wrap your gifts early if you plan on taking them for the trip. Be sure to package your gifts much more carefully than you would normally, especially if they are fragile, to avoid any damage that may occur during your travels. If you don't have much extra room to travel with your gifts, ship them before you leave home. If you ship to the address that you will be arriving at, it will save you from traveling with them.

2. Don't Forget
To ensure that you have a great family vacation, be sure that your trip and your planned activities are enjoyable for everyone in the family. Before you finalize any details, sit down with your entire family and make sure that each person has a say in something they would like to do while on vacation. Also, be sure that you have set aside enough time on your trip so that everyone can enjoy their favorite activities.

3.Weather Planning
If you are planning on partaking in outside activities, be sure to check the weather forecast. If you are going to check out one of Lake Geneva's special holiday events while you're in town, be sure you know the weather ahead and pack accordingly.

4.Arrive Early
When making travel plans, always check for road construction and road closings. The last thing you want to do on your way to your vacation destination is to get stuck in traffic if you can avoid it. Also be sure to leave at the appropriate time to avoid rush hour or congested roads.

5. Santa Questions
Planning on celebrating Christmas morning while you're on vacation? When your children start asking questions like "How will Santa find me if I'm away from home," have your responses ready and reply with reassurance that Santa is always watching!

And most importantly, have a Very MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Traveling with Kids? Be sure to book with a Kid-Friendly Hotel!

When traveling with kids, your hotel room will most likely get a lot of use due to naps, changing clothes, meal and snack times, etc. But you also will want to book a hotel room that is close to activities. Kids get worn out more quickly with lots of transportation and you will want them fresh for the activities you have planned.

Here are some kid-friendly features you might want to look for when booking your room:

-Adjoining rooms or larger rooms - this can give your kids enough room to move around and play.
-A separate seating area away from the beds/bedrooms - This will allow the adults a place to chat while the kids nap.
-Soundproofing - Whether you don't want to upset other guests with noisy children or you don't want your children to be disturbed, try to ask for rooms away from popular and busy areas such as the front desk and pool area.
-Kid friendly restaurants - Whether it's an onsite restaurant or within walking distance, you will want a kid-friendly restaurant that is close, to avoid having to get kids in and out of the car, which can sometimes be a hassle within itself.
-A pool and/or other kid friendly amenities such as organized children's activities.
-Free wireless internet - It's a great and quiet way for you to be entertained while your children are asleep.
-Refrigerator - Perfect for storing drinks and refrigerated snacks.
-A Kitchen or kitchenette that can be used to cook meals and snacks - This is also a plus because your family will save money by not having to eat out at every meal.
-Walking distance to markets, restaurants, coffee shops, etc to pick up quick essentials.

Overall, whatever your budget, you should look for accommodations in a central location that is close to attractions and offers easily accessible transportation or is so close to attractions where no transportation is needed. Better yet look for free transportation to major attractions.

Make Vacationing with Children Enjoyable

Traveling with small children? Enjoy these 10 helpful tips to make your vacation as relaxing and enjoyable as possible.

1.When deciding what toys to take on your trip, consider a travel-sized MagnaDoodle. The pen is attached by a string so you won't have to worry about losing any pieces and you'll never run out of drawing paper! Write words, draw pictures, and play games!

2.Think about purchasing Goodnites. They protect kids from accidents, which tend to occur more when traveling or sleeping in different locations.

3.If traveling with very curious and active children, take along a package of outlet covers. Most hotels don't think to provide these and they could save you from a major problem. Also think about bringing stove/oven knob covers or simply removing the knob covers when not cooking.

4.Be sure to pack a change of clothes for yourself. Children are often very clumsy and you won't want to be wearing around that sticky, wet, or dirty clothing all day.

5.If you are traveling with small children, especially ones that tend to wander, here's a tip that may calm some of your worry. Before you leave for your trip, visit a local hospital and ask if they will make a plastic bracelet for each of your children. Most hospitals will do this for you and then you can put whatever information you would like on a slip of paper and insert it into the bracelet.

6.Always keep a recent photo of your child with you. You never know if your children will wander off and this will help you in locating them.

7.To make your trip a little easier pack an entire day's worth of clothing, a change of clothes, sufficient diapers, and food in a Ziploc bag for each day of travel. Then each day you can just throw a new Ziploc bag in your diaper bag and you're ready to go.

8.Buy hand sanitizer or baby wipes before you leave for your trip. It works perfect for cleaning dirty, sticky hands when you can't get to a restroom.

9.Buy an inexpensive camera for children that are old enough to use one. This way your children can photograph their trip from their perspective.

10.Be sure to pack snacks to keep your children satisfied during meals and prepackage them or buy small, individual packages which will make it easy to pack and serve. Also be sure that the snacks are easy to eat and won't cause a big mess. Don't forget to bring easy to drink beverages like juice boxes as well.

Plan the Perfect Summer Vacation Close to Home

Summer vacations are the perfect opportunity to get away to a favorite spot for some relaxation or to spend time with your family. However, if your trip is not planned correctly, you will spend your vacation stressed out! Here are some travel tips to make this summer vacation your best one yet:

Pack Plenty of Sun Screen, Hats and Sunglasses

The sun is stronger in the summer and there is nothing worse than having sunburn on vacation. So be sure that you pack plenty of sunscreen and reapply often. This is especially important if you plan on spending time on Geneva Lake or at The Cove of Lake Geneva's outdoor pools.

Be Flexible

Leave a little wiggle room in your plans. There is so much to do in Lake Geneva from spending time on the lake to shopping at the downtown boutique shops that you will enjoy more of your vacation if you are flexible about what you and your family wants to do during your visit.

Bring a Camera

Not only that, but don't forget your charger or an extra memory card. There is so much to do in Lake Geneva, you will not want to miss out on any experiences you are going to have or miss out on capturing the beauty of the city or the lake.

Keep the Kids Amused

Lake Geneva offers families many children friendly activities, as does The Cove of Lake Geneva. While at The Cove, you can relax while your children enjoy our children's friendly pool, daily summer activities, live poolside bands on weekends, and nightly dive in movies. Or if you venture out into Lake Geneva, treat them to an ice cream social boat ride on the Geneva Lake Cruise Line or to a game of mini golf.

Be Prepared For Rain or Cooler Weather

While everyone hopes for warm, sunny weather on their vacation, sometimes that isn't the case. If that happens during your stay at The Cove, your family can still enjoy the indoor pool, hot tub, and sauna, as well as the arcade. Or venture out into town and enjoy an enclosed boat tour of the lake or a movie at the local theater.

Don't Overdo It, Relax

The Cove of Lake Geneva's suites provide guests with the luxuries of home by offering fully equipped kitchens, whirlpool tubs, pillow top mattress beds, and a multitude of other amenities. Spend your day's relaxing by the pool, out on the lake, or walking around town and checking out all the great boutique shops. Vacation is all about relaxing, so do it!

How to Chose the Right Resort In Lake Geneva

Now that Christmas is behind us, it is the perfect time to start thinking about your upcoming summer family vacations. Follow these helpful suggestions to find the best Lake Geneva resort for you and your family.

1. You need to determine what your budget is and try not to spend over that amount. This way you will have extra funds that can be used to experience Lake Geneva. Why not spend a day boating on the lake, take a carriage ride around town, enjoy a day of shopping in Lake Geneva's boutiques or take pleasure in a fabulous dinner? Determining your budget will also immediately narrow your list of potential resorts.

2. Make a list of things you must have in the room of your resort.
a. How many bedrooms will you need? Bathrooms?
b. Do you plan on eating most of your meals in your room? Will you need a full kitchen?
c. Will you need a TV? Cable? DVD player?
d. Are you bringing your laptop? Will you need wireless internet?

3. Spend some time online researching the resorts that fit into your allotted budget. One great way to do this is by looking at the resort's websites, as well as reading reviews guests have posted about their stay at these resorts on travel sites. You are sure to find both positive and negative reviews for most resorts depending on how they accommodated specific needs of specific guests, so don't let one bad review make your decision.

4. If you are traveling with children, you might want to look for a resort with additional amenities such as a swimming pool, children's play area, or daily activities for them to partake in.

5. Decide if it is important to you where the resort is located in reference to the activities you plan to do. If you plan to spend your whole time at the resort this question isn't important, but for those who want to explore your location this question is vital, especially depending on the time of year. Lake Geneva is congested during the summer months so if you plan to drive into town everyday you need to think about parking and parking meters. Both of which can be stressful and expensive.

6. Check to see if your potential resorts are offering any special discounts during the time you are thinking about visiting. The off-season is the perfect time to check into the resorts to see if they are offering any holiday specials that can be used during the time of your planned visit.

The Marketing Department Learns How to Write With Style

Geneva Hospitality's Marketing Assistant Rose Wolf recently attended a Style Writing Seminar in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. This seminar was a two day writing class where Rose learned about the different styles and formats of writing.

In general, style writing has to do with writers learning about the conventions of writing and how to use them as effectively as possible in order to get their message across.

In this class, Rose wrote an article on a marketing event which she attended that took place at The Cove of Lake Geneva in order to showcase her writing. Upon submission, she was praised by her instructor on her style of marketing writing.

The focus of the class was centered upon different writing style preferences in the office. The conclusion drawn was that businesses need to set style preference guidelines for all writers in the office to follow. This will result in messages being sent out in the same tone and will help in effectively getting messages across to audiences.

After returning from the seminar, Rose shared all the information she learned and handouts she received with the marketing department in order to set style preference guidelines within the department.
