COVID-19 SKÅL USA Information

A message to Skål USA members,

When I took over as Skål USA President on January 1, I had no idea where the world would be less than 3 months later. Most of us in the travel industry have been significantly impacted by the crisis of Covid-19 and the impact appears likely to get worse, before it gets better.

As the leading global tourism organization, we must be diligent about protecting our members. We also need to ensure that when this passes, we will be in a strong position to resume normal operations of our businesses and ensure that our organization will continue to thrive and grow.  I have included in this new page a collection of resources that may be helpful to you and your club during these difficult and challenging times to our industry and your club…As always, please contact me at any time. Thank you for your leadership. Dave Ryan, President Skal International USA.

Dear Skålleague,

In this really tough time, I want to communicate the Executive Board’s support of you and our confidence in you and the travel industry’s ability to respond and recover from the impacts of this disastrous COVID-19 Virus.

Our major concern is the health and safety of all our Skålleagues, their clients, their families and our employees in our Torremolinos office in Spain…Peter C Morrison, President, Skål International
