In 2013, tourists spent almost $126 million in Bulloch County, according to the U.S. Travel Association. In 2013-2014, the Statesboro Convention and Visitors Bureau assisted record numbers of tourists and visitors and, since its spacious new Regional Visitors Center opened in September, the number stopping by the SCVB has increased further. "Actually, our daily traffic is almost double, so we're really excited about that," said Heidi Jeffers, executive director for the Statesboro Convention and Visitors Bureau.
