Hello,

After volunteering at Inside Detroit/D:Hive last year, and recognizing all that Wayne County has to offer to visitors, I began brainstorming on starting a Wayne County Tourism Bureau. The DMCVB [[Visit Detroit) does a great job with regional attraction as D:HIVE is more City based, yet for attractions like the Henry Ford Estate, the Henry Ford/Greenfield Village collection, Wayne County Parks, our historic sites, and Fort Wayne, don't have a one-stop shop base for visitors and business visitors in the county. The bureau could also highlight the great historic downtown's Wayne County boasts.

I am attempting to work with an excellent Wayne County commissioner I met, to establish this. Yet, with W.C's limited resources, do you think it may be better to approach Dan Gilbert/BedRock about this idea. Any, and all criticism or comments are welcome!
