“We’re partnering with the Bluegrass Music Hall of Fame & Museum and O.Z. Tyler Distillery to promote Owensboro,” Mark Calitri, president of the Owensboro-Daviess County Convention & Visitors Bureau, said Wednesday. “When we split the costs three ways, billboards are affordable.
“We’re trying to market Owensboro as a destination,” Dave Kirk, the CVB’s destination management director, said of the billboard. “We’re a one-stop shop with bluegrass, bourbon, barbecue and shows.”
