"The New Mexico Hospitality Association is one of the best groups that Bishop’s Lodge belongs to. Member benefits are significant and present many great cost savings and opportunities to work with preferred vendors. The annual Governors Conference, the TRENDS conference, and all of the other free seminars provide a tremendous amount of value to myself and my organization. We are so pleased with our membership, the return on investment, and the opportunity to participate in everything that association membership offers!"
