Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, Tucson, AZ
 Ranked one of the top 25 resorts in North America by Conde Nast Traveler, the Loews Ventana Canyon Resort is located on a plateau above the city of Tucson and nestled into the Catalina Mountain foothills. It’s a hushed world where long-time residents such as the Saguaro cacti, the coyote, and the great horned owl live in undisturbed harmony throughout its 93 acres. Inside, native copper, desert amethyst and muted tones of mauve and sage blend in with the surroundings. It’s truly an oasis.
 Two championship golf courses rise into the foothills. An on-site spa beckons you to indulge as well as two swimming pools with Jacuzzi’s, eight lighted tennis courts, hiking, biking and horseback riding. MAFSI has a secured room rate of $199 and an individual golf rate of $85 (exclusive of the MAFSI Golf Tournament) at the Loews Ventana Canyon. You may call (520) 299-2020 to make your hotel or golf reservations - please reference MAFSI Conference and dates.
What You Said About the 2007 MAFSI Annual Conference
This year's MAFSI Conference was one of the best I've attended yet. The sessions were informative and educational. As with all the MAFSI conferences I've attended, I was able to identify several key opportunities to improve my business based on the things I learned in the sessions and the breakouts. Most importantly, the time to network with my reps and my peers was invaluable. There are few other events in our industry that offer you the quality networking that MAFSI does. I can't wait to do it again next year." - Mike Whiteley, CFSP, HATCO Corp.
"The MAFSI Conference in Boston was the best I have ever attended. It was perfectly organized and filled with informative sessions. I was particularly impressed with the schedule. There was time allotted for everyone to participate in just about every breakout session offered. There was also plenty of time for networking and daily business." - Mike Hensley, Professional Manufacturers Representatives
"I have had the opportunity to attend many MAFSI conferences over the past 25 years. While the conferences are always excellent, the 2007 conference in Boston was outstanding. The format was great and the speakers provided new and unique ways of approaching the marketplace. The information I took away from the conference was very beneficial." - Greg Fischer, Cambro
"It had been 12 years since my last conference, and will now be a regular, yearly event for me. I gained a tremendous amount in Boston. I'm looking forward to next year's MAFSI conference already!" - Richard O'Brien, Masteller Marketing, Inc.
"Congratulations on a fabulous MAFSI conference. Of the twenty-some conferences I've attended this one certainly ranks as one of the best. The speakers and breakout sessions were excellent. Where else can you hear from eight speakers on topics ranging from "Strategies for Building Your Business" to "Listening for Productivity" and attend breakout sessions on "How to Pay the Least Amount in Taxes" or "Negotiate Effectively with Dealers" all in 2.5 days! Many reps say they can't afford the time to go to the conference; truth is, they really can't afford not to go." - Tim Preiner, Hollander Co.
