(KNZA)--National Travel and Tourism Week is now underway; and, along with the State of Kansas, the Brown County community of Hiawatha is commemorating the annual week of recognition.
The City of Hiawatha has joined the Kansas Power of Travel Coalition, launched by the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism.
Stacy Babb, Administrator of the Hiawatha Chamber of Commerce and Convention and Vistior's Bureau, says travel and tourism play a key role in the local Hiawatha economy.
In commemoration of the financial benefits found through travel and tourism, both locally and statewide, Babb is encouraging local business owners to wear red on Wednesday in commemoration of the week, as a way to raise awareness of the importance of tourism.
National Travel and Tourism Week began Saturday and runs through this coming Sunday.
