Governor’s Conference on Tourism to resume

After a two-year hiatus, the Governor’s Conference on Tourism will resume later this year.

The conference, sponsored by the Nevada Commission on Tourism and focused on travel trends and other tourism issues, will take place Dec. 7-8 at the Peppermill in Reno.

“It was a difficult decision to put the conference on hold, but the economy and strained budgets required (the commission) to do so,” said Lt. Gov. Brian Krolicki who serves as the chairman of the tourism commission. “The conference has become a staple of learning and networking for Nevada’s tourism industry, and it’s with great pleasure we can resume this valuable program.”

Krolicki said the registration fee will be reduced from previous years to reflect the shorter schedule.
