Dave Lorenz

VICE PRESIDENT, TRAVEL MICHIGAN COME ENJOY “PURE MICHIGAN” — A STATE WE LOVE TO SHARE. We invite you to explore our two peninsulas and let the unspoiled nature and authentic character of a truly majestic land revive your spirit.

Outdoor enthusiasts have miles of towering sand dunes to canvas, and thousands of acres of state and national parks and forests that stretch across both the Upper and Lower Peninsulas. Discover thousands of inland lakes, streams and rivers providing unmatched opportunities for paddle sports fans and anglers. Hike or bike an extensive network of trails, or tee off on a championship golf course. From breathtaking landscapes, crystal blue waters, inviting freshwater beaches and starry skies — Michigan has it all.

If city adventure is more your style, Michigan offers museums, art galleries, theaters, night life and rich cultural attractions. We also urge you to explore our booming craft beer scene, thriving wineries and head-turning culinary hotspots. Michigan is a four-season state where fall color tours take your breath away and the abundant lake-effect snow provides the perfect backdrop for first-class snow sports.

The next time you consider a venue for a meeting or event, I encourage you to work with the remarkable member organizations of the MACVB, where you can always count on a firstclass customer service experience.

The Great Lakes State is ready to provide you with the unique experiences that have made Michigan destinations so memorable for generations.

Sincerely,
