NAAA’s Lindsay Barber Quoted in National Convention Publication

NAAA’s Lindsay Barber, director of communications and meetings was quoted in the Association Conventions & Facilities magazine on the success of the 2024 Ag Aviation Expo in Fort Worth, Texas. The magazine is a source for association meeting planning management professionals and is read by 20,500 subscribers.

Barber and the Visit Fort Worth Convention & Visitors Bureau staff were interviewed. When asked about NAAA’s selection of Fort Worth for an annual convention, Barber responded, “Fort Worth was selected due to the ease of getting to/from DFW and the size of the city. Our membership and convention attendees like to be the big fish in the small pond, and the city helped with that feeling. Many attendees requested a Texas convention in the past, due to the proximity of many of our members, and we were finally able to make it work.”

Regarding being asked about our attendee and exhibitor experience, Barber responded, “They enjoyed the ease of getting from their hotels to the convention center, as well as to the restaurants, bars and various entertainment districts, such as the Sundance Square and the Stockyards.” Read the article here and scroll down to the Fort Worth section.
