The Greater Lansing CTA Program is now in its 12th year within the community!  We thank you for continuing to be a part of exceeding expectations for our visitors!  Our industry has withstood a lot of disruption over the past two years and we’re glad the CTA program continues to be valued and beneficial to the community.  We start 2022 with 322 active CTAs and a 66% renewal rate for 2021.  Let’s continue to build the CTA program by encouraging your colleagues to join the program if they have not already.  Thanks again for your support and participation!  We have great things in store for 2022! 

 

The 2022 Visitor Guide will come out by the end of February and we’re looking forward to sharing some exciting changes to the format of the Guide to make it easier to use and for visitors to find information. Please make sure to stock up your location when they become available.
