LOVED the (h)opportunity to spread good cheer with our friends at Cheeriodicals | Team Building That Matters at ASAE's Annual Meeting & Expo this week in Cleveland, OH! 🐸 Joined by partners from the Birmingham-Jefferson Convention Complex (BJCC), Sheraton Birmingham Hotel, The Westin Birmingham, and Hyatt Regency Birmingham , the GBCVB sales and marketing team encouraged meeting planners and association professionals from across the country to help package and then deliver 160 care packages to patients at a local children’s hospital. 🤗 ASAE: The Center for Association Leadership hosts the largest educational and networking conference for association professionals in the world, with nearly 400 destinations and service providers in attendance in Ohio, allowing our team to showcase the Greater Birmingham Region as a premier meetings and conventions destination. 🌎️ Read our full event recap article at bit.ly/asae-cheer 👈️ #inbirmingham #asae #meetings #tourism

Members of the GBCVB tourism and marketing departments had a great time learning and networking with the brightest minds and brands in travel and tourism in Experience Columbus with U.S. Travel Association at #ESTO2024! 👏 Returning to Greater Birmingham today with new ideas and a renewed energy and excitement to promote our especially unique destination. ☝️ As Mark Twain said, "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime." 🌎 #inbirmingham #travel
