As San Diego prepares for a busy tourist season, it will also be celebrating this year some important anniversaries for SeaWorld, Legoland and Comic-Con
According to the calendar, the official start of summer is still weeks away, but that didn't stop local San Diego leaders from celebrating the arrival of the tourist season Tuesday with the help of some familiar mascots, rollerbladers and a shower of colorful streamers.
'Over the past year, tourism generated approximately $1 billion in tax revenues across the county. We put these revenues to work at the city of San Diego to help fund essential services and pay for public infrastructure that directly benefits local residents and businesses.” This year happens to coincide with some major anniversary milestones in San Diego — the 20th for Petco Park and U.S.S.
