announced that the members of Global
Discovery Vacations may now participate in a college basketball tournament-style
bracket-voting to establish their favorite vacation activities.
According
to Tom Lyons, President and CEO of GCI, “We’ve taken 16 popular activities
that travelers enjoy while vacationing. Each day members vote for their
