  • Westminster Abbey 2013 Report to the Visitor Her Majesty the Queen
    Westminster Abbey 2013 Report To The Visitor Her Majesty The Queen Your Majesty, The Dean and Chapter of the Collegiate Church of St Peter in Westminster, under the Charter of Queen Elizabeth I on 21st May 1560 and the Statutes graciously granted us by Your Majesty in a Supplemental Charter on 16th February 2012, is obliged to present an Annual Report to Your Majesty as our Visitor. It is our privilege, as well as our duty, now to present the Dean and Chapter’s Annual Report for the Year of Grace 2013. From time to time, the amount of information and the manner in which it is presented has changed. This year we present the report with more information than in recent years about the wide range of expertise on which the Dean and Chapter is able to draw from volunteers sitting on statutory and non-statutory advisory bodies. We also present more information about our senior staff under the Receiver General and Chapter Clerk who together ensure that the Abbey is managed efficiently and effectively. We believe that the account of the Abbey’s activities in the year 2013 is of wide interest. So we have presented this report in a format which we hope not only the Abbey community of staff, volunteers and regular worshippers but also the wider international public who know and love the Abbey will find attractive. It is our daily prayer and our earnest intention that we shall continue faithfully to fulfil the Abbey’s Mission: — To serve Almighty God as a ‘school of the Lord’s service’ by offering divine worship daily and publicly; — To serve the Sovereign by daily prayer and by a ready response to requests made by or on behalf of Her Majesty; — To serve the nation by fostering the place of true religion within national life, maintaining a close relationship with members of the House of Commons and House of Lords and with others in representative positions; — To serve pilgrims and all other visitors and to maintain a tradition of hospitality.

    WELCOME FROM THE PRESIDENT AWARDS & RECOGNITIONS TOURISM MARKETING CONVENTION DEVELOPMENT MARKETING PARTNER PROGRAM EMARKETING MEDIA RELATIONS VISITOR SERVICES GRAPHIC COMMUNICATIONS BOARDWALK HALL CONVENTION CENTER The Atlantic City Convention & Visitors Authority 2314 Pacific Ave Atlantic City Nj 08241 www.atlanticcitynj.com ANNUAL REPORT ANNUAL REPORT There’s no doubt that 2008 can be summed up in two words: “exciting” and “challenging” for Atlantic City. It was exciting because of all the new developments that opened during the year, increasing our room inventory and providing additional activities and attractions for our visitors. It was challenging because of the many changes on the competitive horizon and evolving with an economy that made it more important than ever to form alliances and promote the city’s non-gaming attractions. Billions of dollars of investment in the city came to fruition in 2008. Approximately 3,000 new hotel rooms opened, giving the city the critical mass of hotel rooms needed to catch the attention of conventions and meetings that didn’t previously consider Atlantic City. The additional rooms also put us on the radar for transportation providers looking to expand service and routes. That’s exciting. It energized the community as a whole, and created lots of buzz in the media. The economic climate that affected the convention industry nationally also challenged us locally, although the impact was significantly less than in other areas of the country. Atlantic City’s popularity as a convention city, coupled with its strategic location that benefits the regional meetings market, bodes well for future bookings. Our environmental efforts at the Convention Center led to an invitation to be a founding member of the prestigious Convene Green Alliance.
