F.A.Q.  
What is a CVB?
Convention & Visitors Bureaus provide information for visitors, meeting planners and travel agents on what is available in that county. It also provides information to residents on current events.

Convention and visitor bureaus are not-for-profit organizations charged with representing a specific destination and helping the long-term development of communities through a travel and tourism strategy.

For visitors, CVBs are like a key to the city. As an unbiased resource, CVBs can serve as a broker or an official point of contact for convention and meeting planners, tour operators and visitors. They assist planners with meeting preparation and encourage business travelers and visitors alike to visit local historic, cultural and recreational sites.
 
How many staff/volunteers do you have?

The CVB staffs two full time employees.  The front desk is run by volunteers.  There are currently over 30 volunteers.
 
How long do volunteer shifts go for?

Volunteers work 3.5 hours shifts, one in the morning and one in the afternoon.  They are scheduled to fit their available times.
