NTHP'S HERITAGE TOURISM PROGRAM SEEKS COSPONSORS
The National Trust for Historic Preservation's (NTHP) Heritage Tourism Program is seeking local cosponsor applicants for its Share Your Heritage 2004 workshop series. Four cosponsors will be selected to receive an intensive planning workshop which is designed to bring a diverse, targeted group of community representatives together to address key cultural heritage tourism challenges. Each workshop will address a specific challenge or theme and will result in a targeted action plan for local cultural heritage tourism programs. Workshops are developed as a partnership effort between the Heritage Tourism Program and the local cosponsor. The application deadline is November 21, 2003. www.nationaltrust.org/heritage_tourism/shareyourheritage.html
