Versailles, In. — Lt. Governor Suzanne Crouch and the Indiana Office of Tourism Development are celebrating Visit Indiana Week in conjunction with National Travel and Tourism Week through May 11, 2019.
“Tourism makes a significant contribution to Indiana’s quality of life and fiscal well-being.

Over 300 businesses and attractions around Indiana are offering discounted or free admission on one or more of the themed days during the week.
