Greetings Traveler,
Spring is right around the corner and it just so happens to be the best time of the year for festivals and celebrations! It also means WARMER WEATHER... which is a great excuse to go to the beach or visit your favorite vacation spot!

Spring Break begins this month in Panama City Beach and Key West! Students from all over the world will enjoy a week of no school and non-stop parties at two of the biggest Spring Break destinations around! See it take place live on our Spring Break LIVE CAM from PCBeach!

Atlanta, Myrtle Beach, Destin, New Orleans and Pensacola also kick off Springtime with festivals and celebrations of all kinds! Check out the Upcoming Special Events for more info!

Our Beta Test from January was a huge success and we were really excited to show off the new features! From the improved user reviews and rating system to the upgraded forums, the new features were a big hit with our TripSmarter.Com Members! And it keeps getting better! Thanks to all who participated. Dimi Pace from Albany, GA was the lucky contest winner! Hope she has fun on her Destin Vacation! We received great feedback from the beta testers and more from others who have submitted business reviews or participated in the TripSmarter.Com Forums. As a matter of fact, you guys sparked several new ideas that will help make TripSmarter.Com even better for our members! We'll be working on those improvements and let you know when they're available! And THANKS!!!

This issue's HOT Travel Deals include a Key West Getaway, a Destin Golf Package, and great rates at Bay Point Marriott Resort in Panama City Beach! Enjoy!
