ALTON Tourism advocates in the Riverbend are applauding a new $6 million travel campaign kicked off Wednesday by Gov. J.B. Pritzker.
The “Time for Me to Drive” campaign by the Illinois Office of Tourism promotes the return of travel across the state. Illinois officials are encouraging residents and visitors to get out and enjoy Illinois’ diverse communities and scenic landscapes.
“After an incredibly difficult year in which the pandemic kept us all close to home and staying apart, lifesaving vaccines are bringing us back to life and heading toward a summer of fun and venturing out,” said Pritzker.
