ICSC PAC Hosts 2025 Donor Retreat

October 2, 2025

Last month ICSC PAC held its annual retreat for Gold Level members in conjunction with the ICSC Fall 2025 Board of Trustees Meeting at the Hotel Del Coronado, located near San Diego, California.

The event included breakfast with Mark McKinnon, cocreator and executive producer of the political documentary TV series The Circus, and former chief media adviser to George W. Bush and John McCain. McKinnon discussed the future of American politics, the rise of social media and the power of political story telling.

Other activities included a golf outing, a yacht trip and networking dinners and receptions.

“The ICSC PAC Retreat was an outstanding success and a true highlight of the year,” Alyssa Rose, senior director, ICSC Political Affairs and Grassroots, said. “It gave our max-out donors a unique opportunity to network with one another, build connections with ICSC Trustees, and enjoy a series of memorable experiences together. Events like this remind us how important it is to create spaces where leaders across our industry can connect both personally and professionally. We are deeply grateful for the continued support of our PAC donors, which makes it possible for us to advance ICSC’s policy priorities and ensure that the retail real estate industry has a strong, united voice in Washington, DC.”
