ExplanationFunds are awarded to organizations that bring in special events, commonly sporting but sometimes other types of meetings or conventions, to help promote the event and ensure the event's success in bringing new visitors to the region. We do not ask for an accounting of such payments, other than requesting an invoice for payment. We know who we have paid, and how much. For some events there is an evaluation to determine room nights generated and it is an internal management decision to determine which events hold the most promise of bringing visitors to the region.ExplanationTxt
