Kentucky Travel Body Chief Optimistic About Owensboro Tourism Prospects

The city of Owensboro may be of little fame at present, but according to President and CEO of the Kentucky Travel Industry Association (KTIA) Hank Phillips, the city is
surely doing something right. Phillips informed the crowd at Greater Owensboro Chamber of Commerce’s Rooster Booster about the city’s successes in drawing more attention to the city.Mark Calitri, President and CEO of the Owensboro Convention and Visitors Bureau, played a brand-new promotional video highlighting many of Owensboro’s best qualities. The three-minute video–at times, moving, while upbeat and inspirational at others – included clips of the Owensboro Air Show, local businesses and restaurants, the Owensboro Symphony Orchestra, Kentucky Motor Speedway, the downtown riverfront, ROMP, and, of course, barbeque, bluegrass and bourbon.
