    I grew up in Cleveland, a blue-collar city with a lot to offer, but which is also saddled with a sadly negative national reputation. I am really proud of the city for making this bid and earning this event in 2014. Of course, as a rust belt city, Cleveland is not Washington, D.C., or New York, or Boston, or even Chicago, but I hope folks will go to Cleveland with an open mind and willingness to explore this proud city’s rich culture and history. And, pragmatically, Cleveland is a much more affordable trip option than those other cities…

    Congrats Cleveland!
