It’s nice to have you IN BirmINgham…..

So, there is a general consensus that Birmingham has an image issue. We complain about Birmingham’s potential for greatness, groan about comparisons to Atlanta, and at times, seem to have a severe inferiority complex.

Now, we have an opportunity to change that.

The Convention and Visitors Bureau (along with the Chamber of Commerce, the Birmingham Jefferson Convention Complex, the City of Birmingham, Jefferson County, and Operation New Birmingham) has launched the IN campaign, with aims of utilizing Birmingham native’s favorite parts of the city to attract out of state visitors.

The best part of this campaign is that you get to help.

Instead of complaining about our city, do something about it. Highlight her triumphs and spread the word about her best spots.

You can nominate you favorite places in Birmingham at: http://www.birminghamal.org/in/partners-sponsors.html
