Johnston County Visitors Bureau Wins Awards

angie_resized.jpgThe Destination Marketing Association of North Carolina is the trade association for over 40 Convention & Visitors Bureau from across the state.  The Annual Meeting was held recently in Asheville with over 120 travel professionals learning from speakers, networking and exchanging ideas on how best to promote our destinations in North Carolina.

One of the annual highlights is the Destination Marketing Awards banquet and the Johnston County Visitors Bureau has received over 30 awards in the past seven years.  This year our efforts to help the county with a litter campaign resulted in banners, car decals and support from our partners to make this issue a concern for citizens as well as provide a clean community for visitors to enjoy.  Our “Don’t be a Litter Bug” promotion with Johnston County Commissioners, Ray Woodall and Tony Braswell received a Platinum Award.  This issue is of great concern across the state of North Carolina, and begins with education at home not to litter our roadways and communities.

Also receiving a Platinum Award was our Annual Report, which goes out to community leaders, chambers of commerce, elected officials and the visitor industry businesses across the county.  This publication recounts the efforts of the Johnston County Visitors Bureau to professionally market our destinations and to maintain high standards in our industry as the county’s official marketing organization. 

Angie Abrams, Sales & Services Manager for the bureau attended the conference in Asheville and accepted the awards on behalf of the bureau.  For more information on the Johnston County Visitors Bureau, our programs and general visitor content for the county, visit our web site, www.johnstoncountync.org
