It’s wonderful for us as we prepare to welcome visitors to the city for the busy summer travel season and as we work with group tour leaders and meeting planners on their plans to visit the city in the future," said Bill Hanbury, President and CEO, Washington, DC Convention and Tourism Corporation, NTA member.
