We’re on a roll folks…first state, now national recognition for Destination Heritage!
The American Association of State and Local History (AASLH) has selected Destination Heritage as a 2010 Award of Merit winner. The AASLH Leadership in History Awards is the nation’s most prestigious competition for recognition of achievement in state and local history. Keith Peterson, the regional representative to AASLH, stated that Destination Heritage was selected as the multimedia winner for being “the most innovative project…to drive tourism to heritage sites.”
The 2010 awards will be presented at a special banquet as part of the annual AASLH meeting in Oklahoma City, September 22nd. The AASLH presents Awards of Merit annually in recognition of excellence for projects, individual achievement, and organizational general excellence. To find out about the other 2010 winners, or to register for the AASLH annual meeting, visit www.aaslh.org.

4Culture would like to extend a hearty “CONGRATULATIONS” to all the other 2010 AASLH award winners! Hope to see you all in Oklahoma City this September!
