The Warren County Visitors Bureau: Promoting Our Hidden Gem

The Warren County Visitors Bureau (WCVB) plays a pivotal role in showcasing the beauty and opportunities of our region. Founded in 1968 as the Kinzua Dam Visitors Bureau, the organization aimed to attract visitors to the newly completed Kinzua Dam. Over the years, the bureau evolved, eventually becoming the Warren County Visitors Bureau in 2003, and was officially recognized as the county’s Tourist Promotion Agency in 2013.

The Mission

The WCVB is committed to stimulating and supporting tourism and economic growth in Warren County and the surrounding areas. Through education, promotion, marketing, and regional partnerships, we aim to increase overnight stays and highlight the unique attractions and activities our county offers.

Promoting Warren County

As the official Destination Marketing Organization for Warren County, we undertake a variety of promotional activities. From print ads and digital campaigns to public relations efforts, we work tirelessly to showcase how amazing Warren County is. Our team conducts surveys, tracks digital data, and collaborates with local businesses to understand our visitors and target the right demographics effectively.

We proudly sponsor community events and participate in expos to promote Warren County’s spectacular assets. Our lobby is stocked with brochures, maps, and guides created to help visitors and locals discover the best of what our county has to offer.

Daily Operations

Every day, the WCVB receives inquiries from across the country and around the world from people eager to learn about Warren County. We send promotional materials to other tourist promotion agencies, rest areas, distribution centers, and attractions, catering to the specific interests of each inquiry. Visitors and locals frequently stop by for maps, brochures, and recommendations, ensuring there’s never a dull moment at the WCVB.

Funding and Support

Contrary to popular belief, the WCVB does not receive funding from federal, state, or local taxes. Instead, we are primarily funded by the occupancy/hotel tax paid by visitors staying in local lodging establishments. Additionally, we receive support from memberships of local businesses.

Networking and Collaboration

The WCVB is dedicated to networking both within and outside of Warren County. We actively visit towns, businesses, attractions, festivals, and community meetings to stay informed and promote our area effectively. Our involvement with organizations such as the PA Route 6 Alliance, Lumber Heritage Region, Pennsylvania Restaurant & Lodging Association, and the Allegheny National Forest enhances our promotional efforts and strengthens our community ties.
