February in Southern WV
It's funny how one of the coldest months of the year is also the one dedicated to love. On the other hand, the colder it gets, the more people snuggle, so maybe that's not such a stretch. February means Valentine's Day, and southern WV has plenty of opportunities for everyone to celebrate love and enjoy the beauty of this place. In fact, February in Southern WV offers a range of really interesting activities. If you're a theater buff or a train guru, or even want to just take advantage of winter's greatest asset, the cold, then February in southern WV is the place to be. This link has all the details

Nominations were received from readers throughout the year and the top picks were selected via online voting from more than 1,000 readers. These award-winners represent a prestigious class that meeting and event planners deem worthy of recognition.
The value in receiving this recognition is that it comes from the United States’ top meeting professionals who book events in the South. These planners demand the highest level of customer service and quality facilities, and they have determined that the recipients of ConventionSouth’s Readers’ Choice Awards do indeed display the commitment to professionalism, creativity, excellence and outstanding customer service they require.
