KWW represents and promotes all facets of the tourism industry from the Mississippi and Ohio Rivers to the Lakes Area and beyond to Todd County. KWW was established in 1969 and is managed by a Board of Directors elected from across the region. KWW is funded primarily by annual membership dues and fund-raising efforts. The annual regional visitor’s guide and map published by KWW are the official regional publications. They are mailed by KWW and the Kentucky Department of Travel and Tourism in response to inquiries received from across the nation. The guide and map are also distributed at a number of travel and sport shows each year, all of Kentucky’s Interstate welcome centers, and many businesses in the area who provide copies to their customers. KWW Welcome Center Office Hours: Monday-Friday 8:30-5:00; Open Saturdays March-October 8:30-5:00

The 60,000 regional visitor’s guides and 85,000 regional map & facility guides that are published and distributed each year provide an excellent opportunity for members to get their specific information out, in addition to appearing in the region-wide list of facilities. • You may take part in KWW’s brochure distribution service.

We bring business success stories back to our members that can be adapted for Western Kentucky. • You will be informed about the issues that affect you and your business through the KWW e-newsletter and e-mail. • KWW provides a forum for your ideas on improving our area as a major tourist attraction. You can help keep tourism a growing industry by offering your services as a volunteer worker during special events or on special projects or by serving on KWW committees. • You can enjoy fellowship with other business owners and community leaders through KWW events such as bi-monthly dinner meetings and the Annual Meeting that features dinner, tourism related speakers, and an auction.
