February 14, 2025

River Legacy Nature Center had the honor of hosting the Arlington Convention & Visitors Bureau’s (CVB) first Arlington Marketing Partners (AMP) meeting of 2025 on January 15th. The event brought together a dynamic group of local businesses, hotels, and restaurants in Arlington, all dedicated to promoting our city as a top visitor destination.

This AMP meeting was more than just a gathering—it was an opportunity to highlight the incredible resources and programs available at River Legacy Nature Center. After their meeting, attendees were treated to an engaging presentation and guided tour led by Shannon, Becky, and our team. Guests explored the Nature Center, explored our interactive exhibits, and learned about the vital role River Legacy plays in environmental education and nature preservation in Arlington.

Feedback from attendees was overwhelmingly positive. One partner remarked, “We received many positive comments about the Nater Center and the great work being done at River Legacy. Thank you for being such a valuable resource for Arlington residents and visitors.”

River Legacy is proud to be a long-standing CVB partner, working alongside local organizations to position Arlington as a premier destination for business and leisure travelers. With over 200 annual events contributing more than $100 million in economic impact, the partnership is instrumental in supporting Arlington’s growth, boosting tourism, and enriching the quality of life for residents.

We’re thrilled to have been part of this year’s 2025 kickoff AMP meeting and look forward to welcoming more visitors and partners to experience the natural beauty and educational opportunities at River Legacy.

If you’re part of a local business or organization, consider joining the CVB partnership to amplify your visibility and connect with the 14+ million visitors who choose Arlington every year.
