Vickie Clark is vice president of Administration & Regional Relations for the Peoria Area Convention and Visitors Bureau, working closely with the president on the overall administration of the PACVB. She talks about community organizations, the future of Peoria tourism, and much more.

Health care is a tradition in the family of Galesburg native Dana Humes Goff. Her mother was an LPN, and her oldest sister was in nurse’s training at Cottage Hospital when Humes Goff was born. “She was on OB rotation the night my mother went into labor with me, and she assisted with my birth,” she said.
Just what would my grandma say about my life today, I wondered. “That question is posed as a basis for making decisions by many Chinese,” said Christian Brutzer, president and general manager of Heraeus Kulzer Dental Lab, Ltd. in Shanghai last month.
