Visit Fairfax's CEO joins Good Day DC
It’s National Travel and Tourism Week and Fox 5 DC welcomed Visit Fairfax’s CEO Barry Biggar to chat about the county sponsored by Visit Fairfax.

Visitor spending also generates essential tax revenue, which helps fund public services and saves the average Fairfax County household hundreds of dollars each year.
