The sun is shining, barbeques are out in full force and everyone is busy making their summer travel plans.
This month, we're excited to announce a new way to introduce your friends and family to Aviawest. Also in this issue, RCI adds another resort to it's growing network and our featured travel journal takes us to Playa Del Carmen for three weeks!
And, whether you're new to vacation ownership or just want a refresher, be sure to join us for an Owner Education Evening this summer.
Happy Travels,
Gayle Miller
Director of Owner Services
P.S. On July 15th we draw the final winners of the 2004/2005 Owner Referral contest.

We are excited to offer you, our owners, another way to introduce your friends and family to vacation ownership with Aviawest. You can invite your friends and family to join us for a sumptuous three course dinner at The Landing West Coast Grill where they will learn about the benefits of ownership. They will also receive their choice of:
- $200 in gift certificates for AquaTerre Spa
- 2 rounds of golf at Pheasant Glen or Fairwinds
- Combination of both ($100 spa certificate, 1 round of golf)
If they have time, invite your referral to enjoy a full day of fun things to do at Pacific Shores. Email concierge@aviawest.com for information on kayaking, hot-tubbing, beach combing, bird watching and more. Contact 1.888.777.9091 or referral@aviawest.com for details.
