Where it says it works

"The Chamber is the unifying voice for businesses in Clifton Forge, Covington, Selma, Iron Gate, Low Moor and other parts of Alleghany County, as well as neighboring communities that do business in the Alleghany Highlands." The tourism site names Covington, Clifton Forge and Iron Gate as the destination's communities.

Verification note

COVERAGE BROADER THAN FILE: the organization names Selma and Low Moor in addition to the file's Covington, Clifton Forge and Iron Gate, and frames its territory as Alleghany County plus neighbouring communities. Runs two sites: visitalleghanyhighlands.com (tourism, publishes info@visitalleghanyhighlands.com and toll-free 888-430-5786) and ahchamber.com (corporate, publishes info@ahchamber.com). Josh Taylor confirmed still Executive Director; the file's jtaylor@ahchamber.com is a personal address, not the published general one.

Where it says it works

Bi-state Shenandoah Valley region. The About page says "Founded in 1924, SVTA is one of the oldest regional tourism promotional organizations of its kind in the United States," serving a "breathtakingly beautiful 200-mile region" that stretches from Harpers Ferry in West Virginia's eastern panhandle to the Roanoke area of Virginia. Members include destinations, attractions, lodging, restaurants, resorts, tourism offices and government entities across that multi-state territory.

Verification note

BI-STATE ORGANIZATION (Virginia and West Virginia) - flag for editors. The site publishes no email address at all; the state's svta@mysvta.org could not be confirmed and is left blank. No staff are named, so Helen Morton / Administrator is not carried over. The only published number is the vanity line 1-800-VISIT-SV, which dials to the (800) 847-4878 the state listed. COVERAGE CONFLICT: the organization describes its own southern boundary as "the Roanoke area," which reaches further south than the state's locality list (which stops at Bedford and Nelson counties); it also does not enumerate localities, so the state's 28-locality list is the state's construction, not the organization's claim.
