T


he Spanish Tour- ist Board retained the coveted tourist


board award. Kathryn MacDonnell replied: Receiv-


ing the industry award for Best Tourist Office is our personal professional fa- vourite. While it is an honour and mat- ter of pride that our destinations receive awards this one recognises the work we carry out in the market with the trade, the media and the public so it means an awful lot to our team and we certainly are not complacent about receiving it.


TOURIST BOARD: SPAIN


We hold our breath in anticipation until the award is announced on the night and we still get excited when we win. We sincerely thank those who voted for us and we will continue to support the trade and media wherever we can and build the links and contacts between our markets.
