National Travel & Tourism Week
Power of Travel | May 2nd - May 8th
The coronavirus public health crisis has had a devastating impact on the U.S. travel and tourism industry - and the entire American economy. It is clear, our country cannot fully recover without a robust return of travel. The travel industry will rebuild our economy, rehire America's workforce, rescue small businesses, reconnect America and revive our communities. That is the Power of Travel.
During National Travel & Tourism Week, Visit High Point will be hosting a Scavenger Hunt. Solve 5 riddles that will be posted on our social media throughout the week, explore High Point and share your pictures by tagging Visit High Point and using #VisitHP. All contestants that complete the Scavenger Hunt will be entered into a drawing to win a full size seatbelt chair, as seen in The Hunger Games, and the winner will be announced Saturday, May 8th! |
Make sure you're following us so you can join in on the fun during National Travel & Tourism Week! |
