Desert Serenity for ICMG Networking...
The Radisson Fort McDowell Resort

10438 North Fort McDowell Road, Scottsdale/Fountain Hills, Arizona 85264
Phone: 480-789-5300

The Radisson Fort McDowell Resort & Casino is the perfect setting for the ICMG Annual Meeting, February 5-7, 2008. An exquisite resort, quietly tucked away in pristine Sonoran Desert surroundings, the Radisson lies within the boundaries of the Fort McDowell Yavapai Nation. With Scottsdale a short drive and Fountain Hills adjacent, dining options from casual to world-class abound.

Ideal Winter Getaway

While you're there, be sure to spend some time on the links at the We-Ko-Pa golf course, exploring McDowell Mountain Regional Park with its 55 miles of desert trails, trying your luck at the resort's full-service casino, or taking in the mountain views from the resort's luxurious pool. Other nearby attractions include Fort McDowell Adventures, Sorelli's wine making, Old Town Scottsdale, the Mesa Amphitheatre and River of Time Museum, and Frank Lloyd Wright's home Taliesen West, to name a few. Nearby recreation areas include several Fountain Hills golf courses, Saguaro Lake, McDowell Mountain Regional Park and Verde River rafting. From spas to gaming, to golf and outdoor adventure, to arts, culture, and entertainment, to great shopping and dining, the Scottsdale/Fountain Hills area offers a fantastic winter getaway with the greatest of scenic beauty.

We-Ko-Pa Golf Club, site of this year's ICMG Golf Tournament, was featured in the April 2004 Wall Street Journal as one of 12 global courses that is beyond the reach of civilization. "We-Ko-Pa" is the Yavapai pronunciation for "Four Peaks Mountain."
