If you are someone who plans public, visitor
friendly events in Cumberland County, you
have probably talked to Jenny Bell. Jenny is
the Faye eville Area Conven on and Visitors

ages not only the FACVB calendar, but also
submits Cumberland County event informa-
on to travel publica ons, website travel
promoters and local and regional calendars
and websites. The bureau is the only orga-
niza on that focuses on promo ng all visitor

Some of the places events are submi ed

• HandmadeNC
• Carolina Fes vals
• South Carolina Living
Last summer, the bureau re-launched GoFay-
e eville.com as a blog to assist with event
and asset promo on. Jenny manages the
blog, which means researching and wri ng
a blog 4-6 mes a month. The blog covers
eight broad topics and highlights the assets
of each Cumberland County community.
In the 11 months since we relaunched,
visita on has grown by nearly 475%. Last
winter, we introduced a facebook page to
support distribu on of the blog posts.
The blog's facebook audience consistently
gives the blog 5 stars. Comments include:
