Do you remember when you first fell in love with Central City? ๐
Maybe you were born here and never left. Maybe you moved here for a job. Maybe you came back after years away.
Regardless of what brought you here, we want to remind you why you've made the best choice ever...and we want to share Central City with the world (...well, at least with all the Midwest). ๐
The Chamber has planned a special day:
"๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐: ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐"

This event is a kick-off to National Travel & Tourism Week (May 3-9 - it's a big deal).
Tourism is important to our little community, because it brings shoppers, diners and explorers who boost our economy and discover our magic...and you never know, some of them just might decide to live here one day - like you did.
โ
The entire community is invited for a special presentation at 8:30 a.m. at the CCHS Performing Arts Center.
Some of our guest speakers/topics planned are:
- Mayor Tim Bolling - "What's So Great About Central City?"
- Jason Buss/Platte Peer Group VP & Pres. of Nebraska Trails Foundation -
"On the Trail of Something Special"
- Merrick Co. Historical Museum - "New Space. Old Stuff. Timeless Treasure."
- Visit Nebraska/State Tourism Dept. - "How Tiny, Rural, Farming Communities
Can Thrive with Tourism"

We have invited a select group of media guests to join us in CC for the morning presentation and a full day of tours of highlights around town. Invited guests include travel writers, magazine and television journalists, podcasters, bloggers, YouTubers - people who specialize in featuring great businesses, attractions and destinations across Nebraska and the Midwest. So far, we have 5 confirmed media guests joining us - which is fantastic - and we expect more RSVP's.
