“Positively, several Award winners are from smaller communities, helping attract visitors to areas off the traditional tourist track,” noted Chris Roberts, CEO of TIA.
“It’s also pleasing to see the focus our business winners are putting on environmental and host community sustainability, as well as financial performance.”
