Last week, Visit Savannah’s Vice President of Sales Jeff Hewitt was honored with the Community STARs Award. The Tribute event is held annually and is hosted by the Savannah Technical College Foundation Community.

“Jeff has successfully led Visit Savannah’s business development team for over ten years, and is a terrific ambassador for our city as he leads sales efforts for conventions, meetings, group tours, and international travels to our area,” Joseph Marinelli, president of Visit Savannah. Hewitt was nominated by the team at Visit Savannah.

The STARs Awards are given to distinguished men and women from all walks of life, from dedicated employees, to elected officials, to longtime volunteers, as well as non-profit leaders and visionaries. Their work makes our community a better place to live and work.

Receiving the award, Hewitt expressed great appreciation and joy for being recognized with other community leaders. He extended his gratitude to his team and Visit Savannah for including him on this prestigious list.
