Many of us will welcome our friends and fam-
ily to visit during the holiday season. The Fay-
etteville Area Convention and Visitors Bureau
(FACVB) offers many resources to help you
entertain your guests. Here are a few of the
products and services we offer.
VISITOR CENTERS
The FACVB staffs three visitor centers, each
with folks who can steer you to great things in
Cumberland County.
Our main office, located at 245 Person Street,
is open Monday to Friday from 8 am to 5 pm.
Stop by for information and check out our
store, where you can also pick up locally-
made souvenirs and other trinkets. We also
staff a visitor center at the Fayetteville Area
Transportation and Local History Museum on
Franklin Street and a kiosk near the chil-
dren's area at Cross Creek Mall.
WEBSITE / CALENDAR OF EVENTS
The bureau's website provides information on
all visitor-friendly activities in Cumberland
County. Included on our website is a compre-
hensive calendar of events. While overall,
our website attracts more users outside
of our area than inside our community, the
opposite is true of our calendar of events. It
has proven to be a resource for locals and
visitors alike. Learn more at www.VisitFay-
ettevilleNC.com.
PASSPORT
The Passport to Ameri-
ca's Hometown offers a
glimpse of the top tourism
locations in Fort Bragg
and the communities
of Cumberland County.
It includes museums,
battlefields, art galler-
ies, memorials, gardens
and nature centers. Each
two-page entry includes
a brief description of the
site, full-color picture and
a spot for a customized stamp pertaining to
the location highlighted. Pick up a passport
at any of our visitor centers.

restaurants and other things around
them, both on-base and off-base.
For military families stationed on-base,
ScoutLook offers directions, contact
information and user reviews of all the
Fort Bragg facilities, as well as integrat-

When the off-base preference is select-
ed, ScoutLook transforms into a pocket
guide for civilian families around Cum-
berland County.
