RECOGNIZING TOURISM CHAMPIONS
Exceptional service forges unforgettable memories and keeps travelers coming back to Baltimore. That’ s why we introduced the BaltiMORE Award, a way to celebrate front-line hospitality workers who help create those positive experiences. Staff nominations are submitted to the Baltimore First Committee, which represents various hotel properties and tourism attractions across the city. Once selected, winners receive special recognition from our team and a $ 100 gift card as a small token of gratitude for their service.
