Testimonials

“This year, we had a hybrid event in place of our annual conference, and Turning Stone knocked it out of the park! Our AV was professional and seamless, thanks to Turning Stone’s in-house partners, CMI AV. It was so important to our group to make the effort to be together, and we always felt safe because of all the precautions taken by Turning Stone. The group all also managed to have some fun too!”
- Megan Osika, NYS Association of Town Superintendents of Highways, Inc."
