About the Tourism & Visitors Bureau

The Tourism and Visitors Bureau was created when the City’s lodging tax was implemented. Ninety-five % (95%) of the proceeds obtained from the collection of lodging taxes must be used to fund a local convention or tourism bureau for the purpose of marketing and promoting the City as a tourist or convention center.

The Tourism and Visitors Bureau meets on the fourth Friday of each month at 8 am There are nine members on this board. Members serve three year terms. Regular meeting dates are subject to change due to holidays, special circumstances, and/or elections. If unsure about a meeting date or time, or to receive information on the location of the monthly meetings, please contact the Chamber of Commerce at 507-934-3400 or by emailing the Chamber of Commerce.
