Tradeshow to put spotlight on Waynesboro tourism sector

Contributors

The Tourism Association of Greater Waynesboro, in collaboration with the Waynesboro Tourism Office, is pleased to announce a Tourism Tradeshow in support of the area’s travel industry.

The event will take place on Monday, October 3 from noon – 6 p.m. at the Best Western PLUS Waynesboro Conference Center.

The vision of this event is to target the local businesses whose staff encounters tourists on a regular basis, such as hotel front desk clerks, restaurant employees, and gas station attendants in order to educate them all that our region has to offer for tourists. Community members are also encouraged to come as visitors to the area are often here to see friends and family. The trade show will have over 30 vendors that will highlight area attractions, such as museums, wineries, historical venues and outdoor activities.

In addition, there will be two free training sessions focusing on event marketing and social media. The tradeshow is free and is also open to the public. Door prizes will be given every hour on the hour.
