April SCVA Marketing Exchange & Ag Fest Kick-Off Luncheon Attract New Business to Your Door!
The Salem Convention & Visitors Association (SCVA) is gearing up for its April Marketing Exchange and Ag Fest Kick-Off luncheon. Join us Friday, April 25, 2008 from 11:45am – 1:15pm at the Hart of the Garden (Floral) building at the Oregon State Fair & Expo Center. RSVPs and prepayment are required.
Agriculture plays a key role in Oregon’s economy generating $21 billion and nearly 167,000 jobs. Agriculture is also vital to the state’s tourism industry providing wine tours, garden and farm tours, and technical agricultural tours. Visitors find agricultural sites and offerings very appealing and amenities such as Salem’s open air Saturday Market, Wednesday Farmers' Market and the region’s farm fresh produce and vegetable stands are true attractions that add to the ambiance of this naturally inspiring area.
