The 2008 Annual Meeting of the Cincinnati USA CVB

The 2008 Annual Meeting of the Cincinnati USA CVB was held on February 26 at the Duke Energy Center in the third level Grand Ballroom.

There were over 400 in attendance.

The meeting opened with a rousing performance by the winners of the Clash of the Choirs, Team Lachey, who were so instrumental putting the spotlight on Cincinnati.

They were each presented a Spirit Award, which is awarded to those who are instrumental in bringing convention and tourists to Cincinnati.

Regina Russo of Fox 19, who introduced the choir, was clearly overtaken by their contagious energy. Ms. Russo shared the duties of emceeing the event with Dan Lincoln, President and CEO of the Cincinnati USA CVB.
Also speaking (in order of appearance) were Mayor Mark Mallory, Commissioner Todd Portune, Nick Vehr, Chairman of the Board of Cincinnati USA CVB, and Linda Antus, President of the Regional Tourism Network.


There were other Spirit Award recipients.




The Bureau had on display a new exhibit (I believe I was told it is new.)
