NATCHEZ — The Natchez Convention and Visitors Bureau is rolling out its new strategic plan this week, and residents have three chances to see a presentation about the plan.

Natchez Tourism Director Connie Taunton said the strategic plan is the culmination of an eight-month research study that tourism research consultant Berkeley Young and his team at Young Strategies and heritage tourism consultant Cheryl Hargrove completed.

Young will present the plan to the Natchez Convention and Promotion Commission and the Tourism Marketing Committee at a 1:30 p.m. public meeting today in the Natchez City Council Chambers.

Young will make the same presentation at 5:30 p.m. at the Historic Natchez Foundation and at 10 a.m. Friday in the City Council Chambers.
