Administered by the Travel and Tourism Division of the State Department of Commerce in Raleigh, North Carolina currently has five Welcome Centers on its borders. Called information specialists, the women who work at the centers dispense information regarding tourist sites and distances to various attractions. They estimate about half of the out-of-state visitors are visiting North Carolina for the first time.
