"Newport Beach seems to have all the good California stuff - weather, scenery, atmosphere, laid-back attitude, etc. - but without all the negative stuff you hear about - congestion, pollution, etc. - in other locations. I'm convinced that Newport Beach is one of the best-kept secrets in terms of destinations. Most of our attendees had never been and had no idea what to expect. They all left as ambassadors for the paradise you call home. I'm a huge fan myself, as you well know. We will be back - no question! If you ever need to use me as a reference to other meeting planners, go right ahead. Newport Beach is on my very short list of "sure-fire success" sites."

Springfield was so attractive to the Retail Confectioners International, the group passed on having the regional event here and instead, they chose to host the larger international meeting in Springfield! The family-friendly attractions in Springfield stood out. They really won our board over.

It was a pleasure with with the Lincoln CVB, their excellent staff and volunteers. Everyone was willing to do whatever it took to make the tournament a success. The Convention and Visitors Bureau staff did an excellent job in coordinating the assistance and cooperation of the other entities that were critical components of the SSWS. Our experience was very positive and we look forward to the possibility of returning to Lincoln in the future.

"I consider the VA Beach CVB an extension of my office. They took the time to thoroughly understand my event. In every area - they exceeded my expectations. I believe [they] added value to my event, brought quality and professionalism to my team and helped me take my event to a level higher than it could have obtained without their involvement."
