Pick Three – Greater Wilmington
Cher L. Przelomski
CEO; Planning Factory International, Wilmington, Del.
What are three unique ways for business groups to enjoy Wilmington and the Brandywine Valley?
Riverboat Queen: Riverboat Queen is a double-deck paddle wheel boat that launches from the Wilmington Riverfront and sails along the Christina River. Groups may do dinner cruises for up to 120 as well as public cruises. Cruisers enjoy the passing view of the city’s riverfront and watching the drawbridge operate. The company offers full-service event planning, including food, alcohol and DJ services. All-you-can-eat crab cruises are popular for casual summertime fun—a great way to get people out after a day in meeting rooms.
