Who We
Are 
MISSION
The
Mission of the Person County Tourism Development Authority is to
promote the growth of responsible tourism through marketing
strategies and programs that balance economic growth with the need
to preserve the natural and cultural heritage of the Roxboro and
Person County area.
LOCATION
Our
office is located in the historic Male Academy/Parsonage, 311
North Main Street, Roxboro, NC. Call 336-597-2689 for more

FORMATION
The
Person County TDA was formed by NC House Bill 859 under General
Statutes G.S. 153A–155 and operates under the Local Government
Budget and Fiscal Control Act. The TDA is managed by a Board of six
Directors; three appointed by the Person County Commissioners and
three appointed by the Roxboro City Council. Each body chooses one
hotel/motel/inn owner or manager as one of the three appointees. The
other two must actively promote travel and tourism in the area. All
board members have one vote, with the exception of the ex–officio
member.
