Colonial Heights leaves Petersburg Area Regional Tourism for Greater Richmond Regional Tourism

In a controversial move, Colonial Heights pulled out of Petersburg Area Regional Tourism (PART). PART is a Destination Marketing Organization funded by several localities, including Hopewell, Prince George County, Petersburg, and Dinwiddie County. On July 1st, Colonial Heights officially joined Richmond Regional Tourism, shifting their tourism dollars to that entity. This comes on the heals of Chesterfield County also pulling out of PART earlier this year.
