Scottsdale’s Season and Economic Impact

With Scottsdale Season in full effect, the economic impact is large. There’s Barett- Jackson, WMPO, Arabian Horse show and now Spring Training is in full effect. Making sure Scottsdale stays on the map as a tourist destination takes a team and the community's commitment. Which is why I’m excited to have Rachel Smetana, Scottsdale’s Tourism & Events Director with us to talk about the real economic impact of these big events.
