Two Cities, Two Shows! Your Tourism Champions Travel Show Booth Visits Montreal and Saratoga Springs!

Your New York State Tourism Champions booth display(s) racked up the miles this week as we participated in two travel events.

Nate Gresock brought your booth display to the Palais des Congrès de Montréal for the Montreal Outdoor Adventure Show. Nate was joined at by Kosta Tsimiklis (from Reach Global, Canadian rep firm for I Love New York), and NYSTIA member Sylvie Nelson (from Adirondack Executive Services), who provided translation services for the show. Attendees were definitely interested in visiting New York State. We did hear concerns about the tariff and border crossing issues, but we let them know we appreciate our Canadian neighbors and that they are always welcome in New York State. 

Brooke Wilson brought our second booth to the Saratoga City Center for the Adirondack Sport Summer Expo. It was a great show with attendees looking for information on hiking, biking, camping and NY's beautiful water features. It sounds like people are ready for the warmer weather and to get out into our amazing outdoor destinations this year! 

It is a valuable learning experience to meet travel intenders, answer their questions about New York State destinations, and share possible itinerary ideas. With this in mind, we are inviting NYSTIA members to join us in the Tourism Champions Booth at travel shows throughout the year. We generally have at least two exhibitor passes available per day per show. Join us for a day or for the full event!
