The paper concludes by describing further need to promote even more orchestrated assessment and an inten- sive approach to analysis and development of growing university students’ tourist market. The earlier version of this article was written at the Hainan University in 2018 and the author wishes to express thanks and gratitude for guidance to Assoc. Prof. Lirong Zhu. 1. Introduction 3.

Tourist Information Bureau Services Year 2 Annual Plan
TOURIST INFORMATION BUREAU SERVICES YEAR 2 ANNUAL PLAN TOURIST INFORMATION BUREAU SERVICES Visit Jacksonville will serve as the premier expert on tourist attractions, activities and events, accommodations, and restaurants available to tourists who visit Jacksonville. In accordance with Section 666.108(b)(1), Ordinance Code, Visit Jacksonville will operate and staff the City’s Tourist Bureau. The Tourist Information Bureau Services to be performed shall consist of the three functions required under the Tourist Development Plan: 1) visitor centers 2) comprehensive listings 3) assembly of available information EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 2017-2018 has been a year of discovery for our tourist information bureau efforts. Opening the new fully staffed Beaches Visitor Center provided a wonderful opportunity to be much more engaged in the beaches area. We hired new staff that resides in the area and have developed a strong bond with the Beaches Museum & History Park. We participated in the Opening of the Beaches Parade to make locals and visitors more aware that we are open. Though our initial traffic was slow, we are seeing improved visitation numbers and know that once there is more awareness of our center we will see traffic numbers increase. Our efforts for comprehensive listings has been a wonderful undertaking, introducing us to new businesses throughout the city. It is challenging to keep up with all the new business, but even more so to keep track of those that have closed or moved locations. Our staff is diligent in our efforts to keep our database as up to date as possible and work daily to make updates and changes. -

The Farewell Tour
The New York Times October 8, 2006 The Farewell Tour By RALPH GARDNER Jr. DIANE McWHORTER was visiting colleges down South with her daughter Lucy, a high school senior, while listening to the Pixies song, —Hey,“ on the car‘s CD player. It‘s a song whose chorus repeats the lyrics —We‘re chained“ 17 times. —Lucy said, ”If I were making a movie, I‘d definitely put this song on the soundtrack,‘ “ Ms. McWhorter recalled. —‘It would be right before the character is about to commit suicide.‘“ Ms. McWhorter was having the same disturbing thoughts. —Here‘s a little moment of mother-daughter telepathy,“ she said proudly. Obviously, the two New Yorkers had been together in the car for too long. But the song and the ride served its purpose: not to help Lucy decide where she wants to go to college next year – that‘s the icing on the cake – but as an opportunity for Ms. McWhorter, however idiosyncratically, to bond with her teenager. —I found it very moving,“ Ms. McWhorter said of the trip. —It‘s a concrete version of a rite of passage.“ Ms. McWhorter, the Pulitzer-winning author of —Carry Me Home,“ about the civil rights struggle in her hometown, Birmingham, Ala., added: —Usually, you only realize these things in retrospect. It‘s a rite of passage in real time.“ Back when Baby Boomers were applying to college, it wasn‘t unusual to see the school where you would be spending the next four years of your life for the first time when your parents pulled the packed family station wagon up to your freshman dorm.
