AUTHOR Melody Foote Director of Communications Fayetteville Area Convention & Visitors Bureau B U L L E T I N Download a mobile app for exploring Cumberland County. THIS SPECIAL PLACE Travel is one of the largest economic impact generators in the na on, North Carolina and Cumberland County. To recognize the value of the industry to our economy, Na onal Travel and Tourism Week, which takes place from May 3-9, 2020, was established by a congressional resolu on in 1983. The theme for 2020 is "The Spirit of Travel." The spirit of tourism industry professionals makes each community special, and those employed in our home- town are no different. More than 4700 people are typi- cally employed in the industry in Cumberland County. These front-line workers consistently showcase the spirit of service, sacrifice and perseverance. The spirit also unites all residents, and our visitors experience this first-hand. Two weeks ago, the bureau launched a new video that pays tribute to our community and its spirit of help and sacrifice. #ThisSpecialPlace is a two-minute video that speaks to the amazing people in Faye eville and Cumber- land County. Head to youtube.com/faye evillenc to view the video. We'd love to hear your feedback!
