Every group, large or small that comes to Flint & Genesee County boosts the local economy. The Community Champion Program of the Flint & Genesee Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) is designed to increase the economic impact of tourism and generate more local overnight hotel stays.
To encourage Flint and Genesee County residents to invite organizations they are involved with to hold meetings in the area, the CVB is producing videos of local people sharing their three favorite places to visit, or things to do, in the county.
The first video features Michael Kelly of Mott Community College. View it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnsGL1zBhzE&feature=youtu.be
To become a Community Champion, partner with the CVB by filling out the Submission Form to identify groups that could help drive economic activity in Flint & Genesee. The CVB will make the contact and explain what Flint & Genesee County have to offer. They will work with your group from beginning to end.
For more information about the Community Champions program, contact Cheryl DeFrain, Director of the CVB at (810) 600-1457 or cdefrain@flintandgenesee.org.
