HSI Sponsors 68th Cooperative Association of Resort Exchangers Conference

Holiday Systems International (“HSI” or the “Company”), a leading wholesale travel provider and developer of award-winning, travel-related rewards programs and technology, today announced it will be returning as a title sponsor for the 68th Cooperative Association of Resort Exchangers (C.A.R.E.) Conference, to be held in Sarasota, Fla., from August 21-23, 2021.

HSI has been a long-time supporter of C.A.R.E. as a member, technology provider, and sponsor, working with the association’s leadership to facilitate and simplify the exchange of resort inventory for member companies using the Company’s custom, award-winning travel technology solutions. Together with its parent company, Vacation Innovations, HSI is committed to supporting and engaging with C.A.R.E. and other key associations throughout the travel industry while bringing value and innovative solutions to its travel partners.

“We recognize and appreciate the critical role C.A.R.E. plays in the travel industry, and we’re committed to further supporting its mission of promoting ethical and outstanding vacation services,” said Bryan Rand, President of HSI and parent company Vacation Innovations. “We look forward to reconnecting with colleagues and having meaningful conversations around how we can help each other grow and thrive as the world continues its return to travel.”

This year’s conference, which includes the association’s 35th Anniversary Celebration, will serve as a welcome homecoming for C.A.R.E. members and industry professionals that have been impacted by the pandemic, offering an extended, robust conference agenda full of valuable content and networking opportunities. The 2020 C.A.R.E. conference was canceled due to COVID-19.

“After a year of uncertainty, we’re thrilled to come together again,” said Linda Mayhugh, President of C.A.R.E. “The backbone of C.A.R.E. has always been its ethical prowess in a highly scrutinized and regulated industry, and we appreciate the support from Holiday Systems International and all of our sponsors as we continue to protect the integrity of our global industry’s future.”

C.A.R.E. was established in 1985 by representatives of timeshare resorts who found that by exchanging vacation inventory among themselves, they were better able to satisfy their owners with increased vacation opportunities. Today, C.A.R.E. member companies offer over 2,500 vacation properties and service approximately one million vacation owners and members. HSI’s support of C.A.R.E. is reinforced by the Company’s continued investment in its brands, programs, and technology, launching updates across its portfolio of brands throughout the remainder of 2021 and beyond to better serve its customers and the industry as a whole.
