2026 Tourism Impact Sponsorship

  • 2026 Tourism Impact Sponsorship
  • This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

    The Tourism Impact Sponsorship was developed to invest in tourism partners by reimbursing the registration fee for various trade shows, sales events and training sessions. Eligible applicants can apply for up to $2,500 in event registration reimbursement, with a maximum of $5,000 being reimbursed to any one organization in a calendar year. The sponsorship’s eligible request is for event registration only; all other expenses, including travel, dining, lodging, and staff time are not eligible expenses.

    Goals of Tourism Impact Sponsorship

    1. Increase the presence of Cumberland Valley tourism partners across the group sales market via tradeshows and conferences. Target markets include but not limited to sports, meetings and conventions, motorcoach and all SMERF (Social, Military, Educational, Religious, and Fraternal groups) markets.
    2. Grow the number of leads bid on by Cumberland Valley lodging and event venue partners.
    3. Invest in the education of owners, employees, and volunteers of Cumberland Valley attractions, outdoor recreation sites, and visitor amenities that will have a meaningful impact on tourism.

    A visitor or tourist is considered as someone from over 50 miles away.
