Many times, I have said that we all act like brothers and sisters when we interact with each other. Throughout the year 2000, I depended on that close relationship to carry me and the organization through. Past President Mount Pleasant Area CVB DMO Operations Manual Peter Fitzsimons has been working with Dave Morris of Travel Michigan to update the DMO Operations Manual. Look for the revised copy sometime this Spring. We especially need additional assistance with the Communication and the Membership Committees.
Most committees meet three or four times per year.
Some meetings are conducted via teleconference. The Opening Reception, sponsored by Meredith Travel Group, will include cocktails and gourmet hors d'oeuvres at Hilltop Golf Center, Michigan's newest indoor golf facility. A motor coach will transport us to and from Hilltop, located between Holland and Saugatuck. The next day we'll begin our educational session with nationally known tourism guru, Bill Geist. We'll also have plenty of time in the morning to patronize our supporting sponsor booths and begin bidding on the silent auction.
