To: All staff Hello everyone, Our annual staff meeting and banquet will be taking place, as usual, at the end of October, and we are pleased to announce that a venue has been finalized for the event. — [1] —. We will be convening at the Palatial Flotel at 3316 Geary Boulevard, San Francisco, at 9 a.m. on October 27. The meeting is expected to run until around 6 p.m., with a short, catered lunch at noon. After we conclude the meeting, there will be a quick 30-minute break before dinner starts at 6:30 p.m. This will give everyone some time to unwind before the meal is served. Those who have invited guests may show them to their seats at this time. — [2] —. Several menu options will be offered, and you're kindly asked to notify me of your selections by the end of next week. For the main course, there is a choice between grilled salmon and fresh vegetables or roasted lamb and seasoned potatoes. — [3] —. Coffee, tea, and other beverages will also be provided. If you have any dietary limitations that must be accommodated, such as food allergies, please let me know as soon as possible so that arrangements can be made with the hotel. — [4] —. I look forward to seeing you all on October 27. Best wishes, |

Georgette Lindsey 3:45 p.m. | I have to book a venue for our regional conference in Vancouver on July 5. I'd like to get the total number of participants we can expect by the end ofthe day. I need managers from branch sales offices in our region to fill me in on how many will be attending. Could you inform me right away? |
Alison Bell 3:47 p.M. | I'll be attending along with 15 others from here at the retail branch in Winnipeg. |
Maxine Newton 3:47 p.m. | Just nine people on my end, including me. |
Lars Nordstrom 3:48 p.m. | I am not sure I can make it. I have a deal to close here in Calgary for a large order of farm machinery on that date. I'll see if one of my assistant managers can take my place. And 12 others will attend as well. |
Sanjay Kumar 3:49 p.m. | There will be 10 of us from Edmonton, including myself. Are you also taking care of hotel and flight arrangements? |
Georgette Lindsey 3:52 P.M. | Thanks everyone. Yes, just like last year, I will be handling bookings. I'll be doing that later this week, so when you have the time, please send me a list of attendees' names. |
Maxine Newton 3:54 rm | Have already sent mine. |
Alison Bell 3:54 pm | I think a few people coming have special dietary requirements. Shall I send you that information, too? |
Georgette Lindsey 3:55 pm | Yes, it would be very helpful if you could all do that. I think about 20 of us from here at headquarters in Regina will attend, so I'll book a venue for about 70 participants. |
Lars Nordstrom 4:11 p.m. | I've arranged for Travis Rembrandt to represent our branch. I will ask him to send you a list and information on any dietary needs. |
