The event was launched in 2015 by Rick Iceberg, C.J. Barrymores (Clinton Township, MI); Ben Jones, Live Oak Bank (Wilmington, NC); and George Smith, Family Entertainment Group (Itasca, IL), three family entertainment center veterans well-known as the Three Amigos. The four previous conferences have attracted a large and growing industry following.
"Each year, we seek to find an intriguing venue to stage the experience," Jones said. "We found that and more hosting 'Soul' [last year's theme for the conference, which focused on the personality of an organization] at the Broadmoor, making the decision to return, easy and exciting."
His fellow amigo, Rick Iceberg, emphasized that "F2 is about people, and the Broadmoor showed us that they too are all about people. Their leadership – including Maureen Carter, Bridget Glazer and Ann Alba – and the entire staff provided us with unprecedented care and attention to detail"
Invited guest Michelle O'Brien, Fiesta Village (Colton, CA) sums up F2FEC this way: "Thank you for your vision, for dreaming, planning and executing this unprecedented event."
Tim O'Donnell, Haas Wilkerson Insurance (Fairway, KS), who has supported the conference since its inception, observed that "F2 is simply the best event in our industry."
