Come Speak at July 15, 2013 St. Johns County Tourist Development Council Meeting on Visitor and Convention Bureuau's Maladroit Marketing Schemes

Come see the public TDC meeting at the County Administration Building (Taj Mahal) on July 15, 2013 at 1:30 PM. Watch democracy in action. Help encourage TDC to ask questions of TDC staff, and of the VCB. VCB currently has a contract with St. Johns County that expires at 11:59 PM on September 30, 2013.
The contract requires competitive bidding and will be re-bid, according to Tourist Development Council Executive Director Glenn Hastings.
Under the three-year contract, VCB gets some $3.4 million in bed tax money this year, most of which will be siphoned to multinational advertising agency MMGY or spent on advertising and agency commissions. It's our money – what is being done with it?  See below.
