MEMBER	TESTIMONIALS

“Tour Colorado has been the Colorado marketing arm attracting domestic group tour and packaged travel to our state. This is essential, especially now with diminishing state marketing funds. Grand Junction has definitely seen an increase in buses this year.” Barb Bowman, Director of Sales & Division Manager, Grand Junction CVB

“The value in our membership is not just through the fantastic relationships I have developed over the years, but also the leads generated at the various tradeshows Tour Colorado attends on our part.” Shannon Dempsey, CHSP | Natl Sales Mgr, Colorado Mountain Collection Destination Hotels & Resorts, Englewood, CO

“Still after all these years, the value of membership well exceeds the annual dues.” Francisca Headrick, Sales Manager, Holiday Inn Denver SE-Stapleton, CO

“Within a week after receiving and following up on the NTA 2010 leads, I booked some great business. I have been a member of Tour Colorado from the beginning and highly recommend membership.” Pat Lee, President Pat Lee & Assoc., Tourism Marketing Red Rocks and Cherry Creek Shopping Center Tourism Specialist

Bucking national trends, Colorado posted significant growth in the touring segment in 2009.
