| Overland
Park, KS � September 2016 / Newsmaker Alert / Global
Connections Inc. (GCI), a pioneer in the travel club industry, has
announced that the members of Global
Discovery Vacations have selected Lake Tahoe as their favorite destination.
What is even more surprising is the method they used to establish the winner.
According
to Tom Lyons, President and CEO of GCI, �We took 16 popular destinations
from across the country. Each day members voted for their favorite. Places
such as Disney World, the Grand Canyon and Colonial Williamsburg were pitted
against each other in basketball tournament �bracket list� fashion. Over
the course of three weeks, the destinations were narrowed down one by one
until reaching the final four most popular destinations.�
The
last four destinations were paired up against each other. On the west side
of the equation, the versatile landscape of Lake Tahoe competed against
Michigan�s historical Mackinac Island. On the east side, beautiful Caladesi
Island (Florida) was pitted against the incomparable Grand Canyon. When
the contest ended Lake Tahoe came out as the champion destination.
�Judging
by the results,� said Lyons, �destinations close to the water earned the
most votes.�
Since
Lake Tahoe has both mountains and water, it appealed to a wide array of
travelers. Looking back over results posted on the Global Discovery Vacations
Member Monday, the pristine mountain area was one of, if not the most,
reviewed places on the travel club�s blog.
�We
were surprised that the Orlando area did not come out on top,� continued
Lyons. �However, we are glad that we can provide so many interesting and
unique destinations for our members to enjoy. The variety keeps them using
their memberships year after year, always having the chance to visit new
areas.�
