Destination Gettysburg wins statewide award

The readers of Pennsylvania Meetings + Events – a trade publication targeting meeting, conference and event planners – have voted Destination Gettysburg the top destination marketing organization of cities/towns less than 25,000 people.
 
The award was presented as part of Pennsylvania Meetings + Events’ annual “Best of Pennsylvania” ceremony last week in Philadelphia. Other finalists included the Hershey Harrisburg Regional Visitors Bureau as well as Lackawanna County Convention & Visitors Bureau.
 
"We are proud of this accomplishment," said Norris Flowers, President of Destination Gettysburg. "This is evidence of the hard work of the staff, the board of directors, as well as the membership of Destination Gettysburg."
 
The meetings market – which encompasses conventions, conferences and events – is an important part of Destination Gettysburg’s marketing, the organization said. While Gettysburg is largely a leisure travel destination, meetings and conferences provide substantial economic benefits year-round and during the week.
