November 20, 2020
This year has certainly been the year that no one could have anticipated. While this is a time of year we dedicate to offering thanks, it may be a little harder than usual. I encourage you to focus on the hope that remains as we begin to look forward to a brighter future in 2021. We recognize that it has been a devastating and trying time for our industry. Our team here at Visit Jacksonville is thankful for you and for all your support during these difficult times. We wish you and your families the safest and happiest Thanksgiving.
– Michael Corrigan, President/CEO of Visit Jacksonville
