Heart of the House Nashville recently engaged in The Hospitality Championship Series (HCS), a dynamic event that honors hospitality professionals through a sequence of competitive housekeeping games and a culinary showdown.
The event’s proceeds contribute to scholarships for students in Middle Tennessee and support the development of upcoming hospitality professionals via the Greater Nashville Hospitality Association Education Foundation.
Decked out in their spirited game-day attire, the Heart of the House Nashville team embraced a lighthearted competition with some of Music City’s most talented hospitality pros.
Wondering what an Olympic-style hospitality competition entails? Picture this: numerous timed sprints and challenges, though not the traditional track and field kind! Teams faced off in a series of housekeeping tasks demanding exceptional skill and creativity.
Heart of the House clinched medals in various events, earning podium spots in the Housekeeping Triathlon, Luggage Load Relay, Dress for Success, and securing 1st place for the Best Dressed Team in the competition!
Beyond its role in financing the education and career progression of budding hospitality talents, the competition underscored the pivotal role teamwork plays in our industry. Whether it’s the meticulous tasks of housekeeping or the intricate dance of front-of-house and back-of-house operations, the hospitality sector thrives when collective efforts come into play.
Gratitude extends to the Greater Nashville Hospitality Association for their tireless advocacy for our industry, and a special thanks to Nashville State Community College for hosting the event. Anticipation is high as we look forward to our participation in the upcoming year!
