Annual Cardiovascular Conference

World-renowned doctors and their families have met at The Silvertree Hotel every year since 1968!

January 20, 2009, Snowmass, Colo., … The American College of Cardiology (ACC) hosted its Annual Cardiovascular Conference at The Silvertree Hotel in Snowmass this January, celebrating 40 consecutive years for this meeting of world-renowned doctors and their families, all at the same property! The Silvertree Hotel and Snowmass Conference Center boast a long list of repeat business for conferences and groups, many of them returning for a decade or more.

According to John H.K. Vogel, MD, FSCAI, MACC and founder of the cardiovascular conference, “I originally chose Snowmass and The Silvertree Hotel for its self-contained convenience, superior product and family atmosphere. When the conference was originally organized in 1968, family involvement in meetings was an afterthought and definitely not a priority. It was very important to me to offer both a cutting-edge educational agenda and a location that provided quality experiences for spouses and children.”

Other meeting planners will agree. The Silvertree Properties and The Snowmass Conference Center (featuring 42,000 square feet of state-of-the-art flexible meeting space), offer a quality, self-contained experience for both meeting attendees and accompanying families. Both the conference center and the slopes are literally steps from the hotel, offering the best ski-in/ski-out experience in Colorado. In addition to Brother’s Grille and the Village Steakhouse on property, the Snowmass Village Mall has more than 50 shops, boutiques, and restaurants…once again just steps away from both The Silvertree Hotel and the mountain. Visitors can also hop aboard the free gondola (referred to as “Skittles” by the locals) and take a quick ride to Snowmass Base Village, featuring additional restaurants and night clubs.

Says Dr. Vogel, “I chose this location 40 years ago because of location, convenience and family ambiance. Forty years later, I am even more impressed with everything this place has to offer.”
