- Place competitive bids to recruit and retain major events that bring in visitors, provide enjoyment for our residents, and increase economic growth
- Provide support for destination development projects that increase the quality of life living in this community
- Provide recruiting resources, programs, and marketing support to assist area employers, from the University of Illinois to Carle, in recruiting and educating new staff in the community
- Manage the Champaign County Film Office
Recent initiatives include the Hospitality Relief Fund, Illinois High School Association (IHSA) State Boys Basketball Tournament, African American Heritage Trail, and the Chambana Welcome Crew program.
