Hello Everyone,
Thank you again for attending the Greater Miami and The Beaches Hotel Association hotel celebration on Tuesday. We at the GMCVB are of course proud sponsors and Wendy and team know they (and you) have our full support.
As promised, I wanted to forward along to you the “tool kit” that is evolving that we have prepared with regard to educating, informing and quite frankly inspiring our work to continue to help make Greater Miami & Miami Beach one of, if not the most welcoming and inclusive destinations in the United States.
Below is the link. Feel free to reach out to us if we can continue to assist you in any way.
