"Tourism
Week"
PIC
Welcome to See America Week/See Arkansas Week The Arkansas Department of Parks and Tourism is working to make this year's See America Week/See Arkansas Week a success. In 2005, we had a record year, hosting nearly 22 million visitors in our state! As Arkansans, we have a true appreciation for the natural beauty of our state, and we enjoy sharing it with others. Tourism is one of our state's largest industries, bringing in approximately $4 billion dollars annually over the past five years. So, See America Week provides the perfect opportunity for us to express our appreciation to the Arkansas travelers who have made this growth possible!
The 23rd Annual See America Week/See Arkansas Week is May 13-21, 2006, and Arkansas's Tourist Appreciation Day is Monday, May 15th.
We are
proud of Arkansas and want to share that pride with our visitors! This Web
site gives you all of the information you need to host a Tourist Appreciation
event in your own area. If you do not already have an event planned, ideas
and suggestions are provided here for your consideration. If you already have
an event planned, you can find fun facts to share with those who attend.
The Arkansas River Valley
Tri-Peaks Region will have a booth set up at
the Tourist Appreciation Day trade
show in the Little Rock Market on May 15th from 10:00
am - 3:00 pm.
We will be having a drawing
for a gift basket that day. If you would like to donate anything from your
business to include in the gift basket, please let us know and we'll be glad
to come by and pick it up.
This will be a day to appreciate the tourists who make our jobs possible.
