Legislative Statement. — Guam Code § 9401

§ 9401. Legislative Statement.

(a) Cultural performers and athletes on Guam serve as

integral components of Guam’s tourism industry. Opportunities

for cultural groups and sports teams to promote Guam’s rich and

unique culture abroad help to educate other communities about,

and raise awareness of, our island as a safe, clean, and pleasant

destination of choice. Cultural groups and sports teams continue

to strengthen Guam’s image abroad through their participation in

regional and international fairs, competitions, and activities.

(b) It is, therefore, a policy of the government of Guam to

identify and sustain a viable funding source to support

opportunities for cultural organizations and sports teams to

strengthen existing, and to attract new, visitor markets through

their participation in activities that are duly approved by the

Guam Visitors Bureau.
