Nancy Hinds Quotations

Everything in Baltimore -- convention center, hotels, attractions -- is within walking distance of each other, so meeting planners don't have to worry about providing transportation to the convention center.

This is really an exciting time for the city. It brings a lot of energy to downtown and gets the locals excited, and it is also another opportunity for us to get national media attention for Baltimore.

It's great news -- the tourism industry has been waiting for this for a long time.
