Some people go to the beach. But you…you do it up right. You go to THE beach. The classy charm of Newport Beach, California is ready for you and seven guests this season in a luxuriously modern, beautiful four-bedroom, four-bathroom waterfront home.

This week-long stay on Balboa Island in the perfect waterfront home is exactly what you need after being cooped up this last year.

From there, take a jaunt to Balboa Pier and Balboa Village all while enjoying some California cuisine at any of its several famed restaurants.
Take advantage of the prime coastal scenery with sunbathing, snorkeling and watersports, or buy yourself some new beachwear at Fashion Island. Newport’s charming downtown features a wide array of galleries and working art studios to explore and shop.
Just to make sure you get the full “California experience,” we are including a day-long chartered excursion to famous Catalina Island on the 69-foot custom catamaran, the “Royal Buzzard”. Enjoy whale watching, swimming in the ocean waters all while enjoying unobstructed views of the Catalina coast.

ULTIMATE SPORTS PACKAGE FEATURING SUPER BOWL LVI
It’s time. You’ve spent a year watching games from your couch, enjoying the piped-in crowd noise. It’s time to get back in the stadium… to experience the crowd when the momentum of the game shifts and take in the competition as some of the world’s best athletes have at it on the field of battle.
Let’s start with the big one. Super Bowl LVI, February 13, 2022. Two tickets to the world’s biggest game at the incredible SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Begin your trip with first class airfare for two. A 3-night stay at the Hyatt Regency Orange County will be your accommodations as you enjoy everything football has to offer on its biggest stage. But that’s not all for the ultimate sports fan…
Experience a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and find out what it’s like to be a big-league hitter. The Arizona Diamondbacks are giving you and 24 of your friends a private, 2-hour batting practice experience. Think you could launch one to straight away over the center field wall? Guess we are going to find out.
What’s it like to fly across the ice on blades of metal, only to be thrown into the boards by a 6’2” defenseman? Well, ask him. Enjoy two Arizona Coyotes games in Team Captain Oliver Ekman-Larsson’s private suite, followed by a meet-andgreet after the game with the 2-time All-Star.
Want some hoops? We have that, too. CP3, Book, and the gang will be lacing it up in front of you and three of your friends at a game during the 2021-2022 season. They just may be “defending champs” at that point!
Watching sports is one thing. What about actually “being in the action?” We’ve got NASCAR for that. You will feel the thrill of being behind the wheel of something that can go from 0-60 in 3 seconds.
And, of course, Phoenix’s signature event and greatest show on grass – The Waste Management Phoenix Open. 4 Skybox seats, 16th hole, 2022 event.

Imagine the conversation about team work, leadership, hard work, craftmanship, and the moments of impact he has to share from years of dedication to the community.
