The experiences we plan are not limited to humans. Many of our members have fur babies and we can also plan experiences for you with them. Our mini-goldendoodle, Stevie Wonder helps us plan for your pups.

Jenna

Jenna is constantly working to get you access to the hottest and most exclusive restaurants and entertainment in our region. She reports back on what’s new and what details we need to include to ensure only the best experiences. She even had to leave the photo shoot to check out a venue for one of our members (pardon her back)! All members receive “Jenna’s Notes” before their experience. Maybe you’ll see her out!
