The San Marcos Convention & Visitor Bureau earned two Idea Fair awards from the Texas Association of Convention and Visitor Bureaus during their Annual Conference, held virtually, on Aug. 12.
The SMCVB won a first place People’s Choice Award for its COVID-19 messaging, alongside a second place People’s Choice Award for its cooperative marketing campaign.
“While we are thrilled to take home both awards, it’s especially meaningful to win first place for our COVID-19 messaging,” Director of Destination Services Rebecca Ybarra said in a statement. “Our team went from promoting San Marcos as a summer destination to creating educational and entertaining campaigns to promote our local businesses while keeping our residents and visitors safe during the pandemic. To be recognized for these efforts is significant.”
