The Georgia Senate Study Committee is setting the stage for its forthcoming act on the Savannah Convention Center's floor. Penciled in for September 24 at 9:00 a.m., the committee aims to gather insights to propel Georgia to the top of the tourist destination charts. Chaired by Sen. Drew Echols (R–Alto), the bipartisan group is publicly extending an invite to everyone who's up for watching the state's tourism plans unfold. The session will also be available via a live stream on the Georgia General Assembly's website, according to the Georgia State Senate Press Office.

Per its mandate under Senate Resolution 323, the committee is set to search across Georgia, from tucked-away hamlets to sprawling metropolises, for opportunities to boost travel and leisure. The meeting is a chance for industry heavyweights to lay out their visions. The committee is determined to thoroughly understand the nuts and bolts of what makes the Peach State's tourism sector tick, a goal set to significantly influence the state's economic and cultural roadmap.

The committee’s meeting will be held at the Savannah Convention Center’s Governor’s Ballroom, 1 International Drive, Savannah, GA 31421. The session aims to build on the groundwork laid in the initial meeting and begin developing strategies to position Georgia as a premier tourism destination.
