Luxury U.S. resort names Siren Communications Canadian AOR

The Lodge at Glendorn looks to boost brand awareness north of the border

The Lodge at Glendorn ExteriorSiren Communications has been named Canadian public relations agency of record for The Lodge at Glendorn, a five-star luxury nature resort in Pennsylvania.

Canadian PR was previously handled by a U.S.-based agency which also handled U.S. PR, says Siren Communications president Candice Best.

“The Lodge at Glendorn has decided to put a more concerted focus on the Canadian market, with strong emphasis on Toronto and the Greater Toronto Area, so it made sense to hire a Canadian firm.”

The Lodge is about a 3-1/2 hour drive from Toronto and Best says there is “significant potential to grow the brand in Canada.”

Over the next six months, Siren will be executing a strategic public relations campaign for the Canadian market.

The campaign will include an engagement program with “informed connectors,” a promotional “corporate retreats” package geared at Bay Street companies, a road trip program with a luxury car brand and a co-branded product collaboration, Best says.

In-market events will include a dinner at a private home, public cooking demonstrations and a broadcast culinary tour.

The agency will also be organizing regular media visits to the property, with an equal emphasis on winter and summer activities.

Built in 1927 in a location bordering the Allegheny Mountains, the resort has 16 “rustic-luxe” cabins and guest rooms on a 1,500-acre site that offers year-round activities. It is part of the Relais & Châteaux worldwide network of hotels and restaurants.
