Dubuque and Davenport market tourism together

May 28, 2004 By admin

Two eastern Iowa communities are teaming up to bring in more tourism dollars. The Quad Cities Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Dubuque Convention and Visitors Bureau have formed a partnership to market attractions in both areas. Joe Taylor is president of the Quad Cities’ group and says it’s a smart move to join forces.Taylor says both communities are tied to the Mississippi River with hundreds of millions of dollars invested in riverfront developments. He says it’s a more efficient use of resources to market Dubuque and the Davenport area jointly. Gasoline prices statewide now average $1.99 a gallon, a new record high. Taylor says that’s another big factor in the alliance as it makes sense to visit a place that’s closer to home. Taylor says it just makes good sense to combine efforts.
