Optional Tours
Grand Cayman Stingray Excursion
$140 per person
Hop aboard our 65 ft luxury catamaran and let our crew take you out into the dazzling azure waters of the North Sound. When we arrive at the sandbar, you can join the stingrays swimming in the ocean. As you pet and play with these lovable creatures, you’ll soon understand why they’re called the “puppies of the sea”.
Our second stop is a breathtaking coral reef teeming with life. Dive into the water again and enjoy the otherworldly views as you snorkel.
Deep Sea Fishing
$185 per person
Capt. Marvin's Watersports is privileged to have excellent, experienced captains who will help you catch that big marlin, tuna, or wahoo. One of the great advantages of deep sea fishing in Grand Cayman is that our deep water is not far from shore, so you do not have to spend hours of your time just getting to the fishing areas.
The price of the deep sea fishing tour includes gear, bait, captain, and mate, plus ice water and fruit punch on board the boat. You are welcome to bring your own snacks and beverages on board as well. The tradition in Grand Cayman is that 1/3 of the catch (or an edible amount, whichever is smaller) goes to those fishing, and 2/3 of the catch goes to the boat.
Annual Joe O'Toole Golf Tournament
$240 per person
The Annual Joe O'Toole Golf Tournament will be held at The North Sound Golf Club, which features the only 18-hole golf course in Grand Cayman. Enjoy a day of golfing amidst lush greenery and stunning ocean views. The course is suitable for golfers of all skill levels. Fee includes transportation to the golf course, lunch, greens fees and cart. Rental clubs are available for an additional fee.
Session Descriptions
Keynote Address: "The KPI’s of health and wellness: how to successfully run your wellness like you run your business"
Speaker: Dan Miller
Obesity and health related diseases are costing trillions of dollars in healthcare spending, absenteeism, lost work time, productivity, and the early death of our loved ones. The biggest issue faced by employees and executives alike is that the health and wellness space, seemingly led by fitness influencers on social media, is confusing and seems to change every other week.
In this program, Dan will demystify what vibrant wellness truly is. Using objective measurements and modern longevity-based research, he will show you what measurements are important, how to measure them, and what actions should be considered to move these metrics closer to real health and longevity.
This program also contains discussion around how employers can incorporate these wellness metrics in the workplace. And, when combined with an education program, can reduce healthcare spending and help employees realize a longer, fuller, happier life.
Attorney-Client Privilege – When to Pick up the Phone: Legal Advice vs. Business Advice
Speaker: Christina Pannos, Pannos Law
Every person involved in the world of business is subject to concerns about the handling of sensitive, confidential, and privileged information. Christina Pannos takes us through the ins-and-outs of what does, and does not, constitute protected communication with attorneys, and why. She will also provide insight into one or two “hot legal topics” of the day.
Screen Room Automation 2025
Speaker: Ben Petsy, Saati Americas
This presentation will include an overview of the equipment and processes necessary to streamline workflow while allowing multi-tasking of existing screen room employees. Members will realize that they can either reduce headcount in the area, or apply existing resources to other areas of production. All information will be applied and based on current GPI member experiences.
