The look. The feel. The tools. The experience. They’re all new for exploreflintandgenesee.org, the website for the Flint & Genesee Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) that launched on Sept. 8.

The new site delivers an improved visitor-focused web experience built on a platform specifically designed for tourism organizations. It offers better tools for planning a visit, a more comprehensive events calendar and a streamlined RFP process for meeting planners and sports organizers. Additionally, it allows local attractions, hotels and meeting spaces to easily update and maintain their listings on the website.

Also, the Explore Flint & Genesee Blog, housed on the site, features a variety of enlightening stories and informative tidbits about area attractions and events.
