Sodexo Pinspiration
We have been pinnin’ up a storm of good ideas for you over on our Sodexo Pinterest page. There is a combination of great food ideas to make your event special along with décor ideas that meeting planners can incorporate at our venues. Keep in mind that many of our properties are in great locations that you can draw inspiration from in terms of decor and themes. You could incorporate a green or outdoor theme for locations like Pickwick Gardens or San Ramon Valley Conference Center. Tap into a varsity theme centered on football when choosing a location like The Millennium Centre. Whatever you decide for your theme, make sure it is "Pin Worthy" and will leave your guests talking about the atmosphere for months to come.
Building a Team at Pickwick Gardens
Summer is the perfect time to plan a corporate retreat filled with a little business and a lot of team building.

Pickwick Gardens features this exact combination. The meeting facilities alone at Pickwick Garden will create a wow experience for your meeting attendees.
