ALBANY, NY - The Albany County Convention & Visitors Bureau (ACCVB) staff and other representatives from hospitality/tourism partners throughout Albany County, such as Turf Hotels, Best Western Sovereign, Albany Capital Center, and TownePlace Suites, took part in a clean-up day at Historic Cherry Hill last Friday, April 17.
This was the first of a series of community service events planned by the ACCVB under their Hospitality Gives Back
