Bri Warner & Andre Xavier – Charlottesville Stay-cation!

June is here, and as the school year ends, and the weather starts to seriously get warmer many people start gearing up with excitement about their long awaited summer vacation plans.

Traditionally, the summer vacation has been a opportunity to unwind, relax and spend some quality time with loved ones.
Big vacations, however, do require a lot of planning, and can often require just as big a budget.

So what if your budget is not so big?

What if you haven’t had the time necessary to plan a trip away from home? And what if you just want to stay here and soak up all of the cool things and places and the great food and drink that Charlottesville and central VA has to offer?
YOU may be the perfect candidate for a stay-cation!

Bri Warner, Interim Executive Director of the Charlottesville Albemarle Convention & Visitors Bureau and Andre Xavier, who is a former hotelier and local owner of three businesses: Cville Hop on Tours, Cville Tours & Cville Travel join our Paul Dodd to talk about the virtues and the fun of the Stay-Cation!
