Dear PPLA Members:

The Board is pleased to share the second installment of our PPLA Hospitality Highlights, recognizing Kinship Landing as our featured Member property this quarter. This new 2025 addition, shared on the Community Page of our website, continues to give us the opportunity to spotlight our Members, friends, and colleagues who make the Pikes Peak Region hospitality community so exceptional.

Each highlight allows us to celebrate one another’s successes and stay connected to the core mission of our Association: strengthening relationships and amplifying our collective voice as one hospitality family. We are thrilled to offer another meaningful tool to learn more about each other and the great work happening across our region.
