SMG is pleased to announce that the
2009 SMG Tourism Conference at Lake Tahoe will be held on June 9, 2009 at the Embassy Suites Resort in South Lake Tahoe. This year's conference theme, 'Why Travel Matters', will challenge attendees to think about this question, and will include a variety of experts addressing hot-button economic, social and technological issues facing tourism.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of this conference. It is an interesting and challenging year to be celebrating such a milestone, and has made the event ever more timely and necessary. Beyond trying to merely attract visitors, destinations and tourism marketers need to consider the larger concept of why travel matters and why people should continue to travel – even in periods of economic uncertainty.
