5/6 - Peoria Mobile Workshop - 2022 APA-ISS Spring Conference
Updated: Mar 3
Let's get ready to..... go on a mobile workshop! The APA-IL Illinois State Section (APA-ISS) is excited to kick-off the 2022 Spring Conference with the first mobile workshop -- PEORIA! On May 6th, learn about the efforts of the KDB Group to revive signature, underutilized properties in the Peoria region through creative adaptive reuse.
In the morning, tour the Scottish Rite Theater, a former cathedral that has been renovated into a state-of-the-art performing arts and events venue. Then, travel across the Illinois River to Sankoty Lakes Resort in Spring Bay, IL. The Sankoty tour begins with lunch on the patio and a presentation from Greg Birkland on the KDB Group mission and their plans for the region. After lunch, the group will hop on golf carts to experience the property, which has been reimagined from a gravel pit into a premier outdoors-focused resort that offers ‘glamping’ tents overlooking the shoreline of the lakes. Learn about how this team of ’do-ers’ built a trout stream fed by the clear blue waters of the Sankoty Aquifer, a youth program, on-site restaurant and much more.
No ISS conference kick-off is complete without a happy-hour! Catch up with your colleagues at the Wooly Bugger on-site restaurant before setting off. Want to make a weekend of it? Visit sankotylakes.com to make your reservation!
