2 organizations market this independent city. Every contact below was checked against the organization’s own website in September 2026.
Shenandoah Valley Travel Association (SVTA)
- Website
- visitshenandoah.org
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.
Winchester-Frederick County Convention & Visitors Bureau
- Phone
- (540) 542-1326
- Website

Where it says it works
The bureau states it "was formed in 2001 as the official destination marketing organization for the Winchester-Frederick County area" and that its purpose is "to promote tourism-related service providers, organizations, attractions, museums, and points of interest throughout the region so long as the City of Winchester and Frederick County will benefit either directly or indirectly." Its About the Area page names "the City of Winchester and the Towns of Stephens City and Middletown" in the Shenandoah Valley.
Verification note
Phone and coverage match the state listing; the bureau also publishes a toll-free line, (877) 871-1326, and a general info@visitwinchesterva.com address (the state carried the role address director@visitwinchesterva.com). NO STAFF ARE NAMED anywhere on the site - the media page identifies only "our Executive Director" by role - so Justin Kerns is not carried over; editors should confirm the incumbent directly. The bureau operates the Winchester-Frederick County Visitors Center at 1400 S. Pleasant Valley Road, open 9 a.m.-5 p.m. seven days a week. Guidance comes from a 14-member Winchester-Frederick County Tourism Board. Virginia confirmed - not Winchester, KY/TN/MA.
