BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: April 21, 2015
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Ed Schroeder
SUBJECT: Tourism Week Proclamation
DEPARTMENT: Tourist Development Department
BCC DISTRICT: ALL
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Request approval for the Chairman to execute a Proclamation
declaring May 2-10, 2015 as “Okaloosa County Tourism Week”.
BACKGROUND: National Travel and Tourism Week is an annual tradition that was
established by a congressional resolution in 1983 and first celebrated the following year. This
nationwide week of events serves to champion the power of the travel and tourism industry. A
wide cross section of travel and tourism professionals work throughout the week to promote the
impactful contributions their travel markets and organizations make to the U.S. economy. The
travel community typically marks the event in a number of creative ways, from staging local
rallies and conducting media outreach to securing proclamations and resolutions from local
governments.
This year's theme (“Travel is __________”) was chosen to reflect the wide-ranging and robust
ways that the U.S. travel industry contributes to the fabric of America. It is designed for
destinations and organizations to customize the message to best fit their individual markets. The
travel community is encouraged to be creative and tailor the theme to reflect the unique value
and impact of our industry.
The 2015 theme for Okaloosa County is “Travel is #EmeraldCoasting” in recognition of all the
activities the area has to offer. In conjunction with National Travel and Tourism Week, the
Tourist Development Department will run a special recognition program identifying one local
person per weekday for his/her achievement in tourism. A dedicated blogpost will be created
along with a posting for each of the five recognized winners.
This Proclamation will be presented to the Tourist Development Council at its April 23 meeting.
OPTIONS: Approve or Disapprove
RECOMMENDATION: Approval to authorize the BCC Chairman to execute a Proclamation
declaring May 2-10, 2015 as “Okaloosa County Tourism Week”.
