Three Sprague Hotel Developer Employees Honored at Hoosier Hospitality Awards
"Hoosier hospitality is at the core of this ceremony," said Elaine Bedel, IDDC Secretary and CEO. " We see it and feel it every day in Indiana. In hospitality and tourism, we take great pride in our communities and recognize the importance of going the extra mile and how much it makes a difference." Nominations for Hoosier Hospitality Awards are submitted by community members and destination patrons and are reviewed and selected by IDDC. Outstanding service is a significant factor in determining whether a person returns to an individual business or destination.
Sprague Hotel Developers had three recipients out of the 11 winners for the 2024 Lieutenant Governor’s Hoosier Hospitality Award. Sprague Hotel Developers’ President and CEO Janeen Sprague expressed her gratitude for the award winners and the strong showing of the company team members overall. “I am so proud to have each one of them on our team,” Sprague said, “We are truly honored that these team members have earned this award, recognizing the outstanding hospitality they provide to our guests. Their dedication means so much to our company.”
