2012 Official Durham Visitor & Relocation Guide Now Available

The Durham Convention & Visitors Bureau (DCVB) is pleased to announce the availability of the 2012 Official Durham Visitor & Relocation Guide starting today. The 100 page publication, produced in conjunction with the Greater Durham Chamber of Commerce (GDCC), is the most widely-distributed resource for visitors, residents and those considering relocation to Durham. 

“This guide is by far the most complete and the best distributed of any such publication about Durham,” said Shelly Green, President and CEO of DCVB. "It is indispensible for people visiting or planning to relocate here."

DCVB has won awards over the past 21 years for its annual visitor guides citing innovation, design and content. This year’s publication is a departure from years past in that new features have been added to enhance the overall usefulness of the publication including scan codes to launch directly to websites, more images that communicate Durham’s unique sense of place, and expanded coverage and new coverage of many of Durham's visitor attributes. Additionally, there is much greater support from community businesses.

Those interested are welcome to pick up a copy at the Visitor Information Center at 101 E. Morgan Street on the Downtown Loop. The 130,000 copies printed will be distributed for a 13-month period. Additionally, a fully linked electronic version is being prepared for placement on the official Durham visitor website, www.Durham-NC.com, and should be accessible soon.

Businesses interested in participating in next year’s publication should email ads@durham-cvb.com. Those intersted in having copies for distribution should email visitorinfo@durham-cvb.com.
