What's new

Winter 2010

2009 was a difficult year for the CVB community as three dedicated board members were lost. Marsha Smith, Paul Wood, and Lowell Cook displayed a passion for and a commitment to Mason County that will not soon be forgotten. Their passings have left a terrible void in our hearts, yet we will continue our shared mission in their collective memory.

Our heartfelt thanks are to be extended to our faithful volunteers. Rod Brand, Bill Knight, Mitzi Taylor, Carolyn Davis, John Boggs, Dick Smith, Jean Newsome, and Nancy Mayes have donated over a thousand hours just this past year alone. We couldn't achieve any of our goals without you and thank you from the bottom of our hearts! 

 

     Our new Arcadia Publishing book, "Images of America: Mason County" was released on January 11, 2010. This beautiful book, authored by Jason Bolte on behalf of the Mason County Convention and Visitors Bureau, is a pictorial book with 200 vintage photographs and 128 pages.  

     Dedicated to the memory of Marsha Smith, a long-time volunteer and former director of the Mason County Area Chamber of Commerce, the book illustrates Mason County's unique and colorful history from the era of colonization to the present.

     The book is currently available at the Mason County CVB shop in Point Pleasant or online via Arcadia Publishing (click the image to the left for further information) and sells for $21.99 plus tax
