It has been a busy couple of days for our CVB team!

๐Ÿ”นEnjoyed engaging with community members at Family Fun Fest last night
๐Ÿ”นToured with our Board. It was truly fascinating to witness the inner workings of such an incredible business that specializes in lighting, signs, set production, you name it. They cater to the needs of numerous music artists, sports teams, corporations, and beyond. It was truly mind-blowing to witness the scale and impact of their work.
๐Ÿ”นJoined Leader Tony McCombie, State Representative Brad Fritts, State Representative Jeff Keicher, and other local leaders at for a tour and engaging conversations.
DeKalb County is undeniably thriving, and we are fortunate to have such remarkable organizations contributing to its success.
