California Conference on Tourism Awards 
the Paradise Point Resort 
for Best Community Service
 
San Diego, CA -- January 26, 1999 - At an awards ceremony in Sacramento, January 25, San Diego Paradise Point Resort won the 1999 California Tourism Award for Best Community Service and Best Direct Mail Collateral.  Held at the California Conference on Tourism, these state awards were handed out by the California Trade and Commerce Agency, Division of Tourism (CalTour) to the top California companies for their excellence in travel and tourism marketing.

Over the past 11 years, the employees at Paradise Point Resort have devoted their time and energy to making the Make-A-Wish Golf Tournament a success.  This unique community service project was conceived, developed, and is now operated entirely by the resort staff.  Not just a golf tournament, it is an all day fundraiser event beginning with a breakfast reception and ending with a spectacularly themed banquet complete with raffle prizes and a silent auction.  Last year, the tournament had to be held on two local courses to accommodate the plethora of supporters.  Approaching its 12th year, the golf tournament will exceed the $1 million mark in total donations.  This monumental feat could not have been accomplished without the complete devotion of the entire Paradise Point staff, who considers the tournament to be a labor of love.  All donations are given to the San Diego Make-A-Wish Foundation to benefit the local children suffering from life-threatening diseases. 

The brilliantly designed direct mail piece has won several awards in the past for it�s innovative and user-friendly features.  The template includes a computer keyboard calendar, a colorful Rolodex card, and an easy-to-use business reply card. 

Celebrating 37 years of excellence, San Diego Paradise Point Resort is a tropical island paradise located in the heart of San Diego across from the world-famous Sea World Adventure Park at: 1404 West Vacation Road, San Diego, CA 92109.  For more information please contact our reservations sales staff at (619)274-4630 or toll free (800) 344-2626.  For a preview of the resort, visit our interactive website at: www.paradisepoint.com.
