2026 C+RB Engagement Summit Photo Gallery Now Available

Take a look back at two days of education, conversation and connection at the University Club of Chicago.

By Joanna DeChellis, Editorial Director, Club + Resort Business | October 22, 2026

The 2026 Club + Resort Business Engagement Summit brought club leaders from across the country to the University Club of Chicago Oct. 5-6 for two days of education, discussion and connection centered on the member experience.

The second annual event gathered general managers, membership and marketing leaders, communications professionals and other club executives to explore the strategies, ideas and challenges shaping member engagement today.

Across two days, conversations covered branding, communications, technology, social programming, major capital projects and the evolving expectations of club members. Speakers shared examples from their own organizations, while workshops and discussions gave attendees opportunities to exchange ideas and learn from their peers.

Those conversations extended well beyond the formal program. Attendees connected throughout the Summit, from meals and breaks between sessions to the Monday evening reception overlooking Chicago.

The newly released photo gallery captures those moments throughout the two-day event, including education sessions, networking, the reception and the people who made the 2026 C+RB Engagement Summit possible.
