Explore Harrison! Take a Hike, Float your Boat, or Ride the Ozarks! What is a CVB? What is a Convention & Visitors Bureau and what is its role? What is a tourist?

Convention and Visitors Bureaus are also called Destination Marketing Organizations (DMO's). They act as the community, county or local authority leader in tourism marketing and tourism project development. The CVB acts as your one stop shop for all things related to tourism. A bureau's primary mission is frequently to market cities, towns, counties and/or regions to potential visitors. Furthermore, they provide local visitor/event planning services, and act as a catalyst and/or builder in ensuring the development of appropriate attractions, facilities, services, and infrastructure needed to provide destination experiences. The CVB is:

An umbrella organization that solicits and services all types of travelers. Essentially an information clearinghouse, convention management consultant and promotional body for the community. Also a coordinating entity that brings together the interests of local government, trade and civic associations, and individual travel suppliers to build outside visitor traffic to an area. The foremost activity and goal for a CVB is to be the tourism economic development agent that assists in increasing an area's income and employment and enhancing the quality of life for its residents. The definition of a tourist is a temporary visitor staying at least twenty-four hours in the community visited for a purpose classified as either holiday (recreation, leisure, sport and visit to family, friends or relatives), business, official mission, convention, or health reasons. A further definition of a tourist is someone who stays in your community and spends dollars to economically impact the community. Convention and Visitors Bureaus (CVB's) are the most important link between local businesses and visitors to an area. Every time you see tourists shopping and sightseeing, a motorcoach parked at an area attraction, a competitive sporting event taking place or a convention group staying at a local hotel, chances are the CVB has been behind the scenes helping to make it happen and working to make their visit a memorable experience. The Harrison CVB would like to extend a warm welcome to you on your visit to our area. Please contact us for information and assistance in planning your trip to the Ozark Mountains and the Buffalo National River region. The CVB is here to serve you!
