Pinnacle Services and Summit Fiscal Agency attended the 117th Annual Minnesota Social Service Association’s (MSSA) conference and expo at the Minneapolis Hilton. This was the first year the conference was held at the Minneapolis Hilton, which provided spacious layout for vendors, ample seating for session attendees and the many amenities of downtown Minneapolis.
New venue, new attractions. This year Pinnacle Services began what it hopes to be a tradition; The Pinnacle Pub Crawl. Approximately 150 participants gathered Wednesday evening to receive pub crawl T-shirts and patronize some of the area establishments surrounding the Hilton. Pre-registration was required and managed by the MSSA conference committee. Pinnacle Services employees served as guides visiting Hell’s Kitchen, 8th Street Grill, Brit’s Pub and Eating Establishment, The Local and Zelo. Feedback from attendees of the event was overwhelmingly positive. Pinnacle Services also participated in the Booth Bash conference event Thursday evening. While the organization did not sponsor a booth, attendees were invited to try the 14 foot Velcro Wall the agency provided.
The widely attended annual conference and expo provides opportunity for those in the field to attend educational sessions, network and gather information. Pinnacle Services provided information to attendees regarding the services the agency provides including In Home Family Support, Housing with Services, Case Management/Service Coordination, Employment Services, Independent Living Skills, Semi-Independent Living Services, Support Planning, Corporate Foster Care and Supported Living Services, Home Care Services and 24 hour Customized Living Services.
