MHLA 2023 Golf Outing a Success!

On Monday, September 18, 2023, it was a perfect day for MHLA members and friends to join together for MHLA's Annual Golf Outing at the Whiskey Creek Golf Course in Frederick, MD. Again, this year tremendous support was shown, with a great golfer turnout and sponsorship at one of the highest levels in recent years.  Ecolab was the Title Sponsor for the 9th year in a row and their support was greatly appreciated. The success of the 2023 MHLA Golf Outing enables MHLA to continue to do what they do best, advocacy for the hotel industry in Maryland. ​
