Subject: Room Tax Calculations for 2007
From: Swisher, Kim
Good Afternoon,
 
I hope this finds you doing well and ready for the upcoming holidays.
 
I recently provided you a report of the 2007 Tourism Division activities that included a statement that our room tax revenues for the first three quarters were up 10% over 2006.  I made a miscalculation and that figure is incorrect.  We are actually up 3% over 2006 numbers.
 
I apologize for any confusion.
 
Best wishes for a joyous holiday season!
 
Warm Regards,


Kim Swisher, Tourism Manager
City of Sheboygan Tourism Division
Office:  (920) 459-4075
Cell:  (920) 627-2326

 That seems like a pretty big difference!

And the 3% is only from Kohler's golf tournament.  Not from Swisher's efforts. :shiver:

So by the time you figure in the increase in the room prices, it's flat. I wonder if there will be a press release on this?

So in summary, we have nothing more than an increase aka INFLATION.  So, tourism made nothing.

OH AND WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BELIEVE THIS WAS A MISTAKE???  :thud:

Please, that's a pretty big mistake and IMHO reason to can her - the woman went and stood in front of the CC touting 10 percent then quietly sends off this e-mail saying, "WHOOPS"????

Please!
