Speak Up

One Message, Many Messengers

It’s important to let elected officials know why tourism matters to Bellingham, Whatcom County and Washington State. During National Tourism Week in May of every year and throughout the year, please lend your voice of support. Remind regional leaders of tourism’s impact on our economy. Tell them how tourism benefits your business. If you consider yourself a Tourism Ambassador, get in touch with us and tell your own story.

This letter template may make it easier to get started.

Tourism matters – tell them why!
