Executive Housekeeping Today - January 2009 - (Page 5) 2008 IHW Celebrations! As part of their International Housekeepers Week celebration in India, the HNB Garhwal University Uttarakhand India—Centre for Mountain Tourism & Hospitality Studies organized a workshop on “Application of Housekeeping Equipment,” in association with Karcher-Products, a German company partnered with Manmachine India. A good number of housekeeping equipment was obtained for the lab for the Hotel Management wing of the university, including highpressure jets, scrubbing machines, buffing machines, dry and wet tank type vacuum cleaners, mop wringer trolleys, and caution signs (pictured above). Hotels in the Washington D.C.-area celebrated IHW with the Inaugural Housekeeping Olympic Games, hosted by the team from Holiday Inn Washington Dulles Airport Hotel. The games featured housekeepers from 14 Washington, D.C.-area hotels and showcased unusual events with a housekeeping theme. Teams competed in three “sports,” which included Toilet Seat Basketball, a Bed Making Race, and the Housekeeper Obstacle Course. Competing teams represented four major hotel brands, and included competitors from the Crowne Plaza Crystal City, Holiday Inn National Airport, Holiday Inn Gaithersburg, TownPlace Suites Gaithersburg, Crowne Plaza Tysons Corner, Courtyard by Marriott Tysons Corner, Hampton Inn Cascades, TownePlace Suites & SpringHill Suites by Marriott Dulles Airport, Best Western Dulles Airport, Holiday Inn Express Herndon/Reston & Hampton Inn & Suites Dulles Airport. The Lantern Lodge in Myerstown, Pennsylvania celebrated IHW with a luncheon hosted by General Manager Jeff Hollenback, to give recognition for the labor the employees provide throughout the year. The facility is under new ownership, and the housekeepers have undergone a refresh of new standards and practices under Executive Housekeeper Lima Mignot. Above, the housekeeping staff is pictured with their Certificates of Completion, which were presented during the celebration. Congratulations!
