CEDAR RAPIDS — The board of directors for GO Cedar Rapids, the area’s tourism bureau, continues to distance itself from responsibility in the handling of newbo evolve, a first-time festival that lost $2.3 million, and says the organization is taking steps toward “restoring the confidence of the community.” A statement from the board Thursday vowed changes to improve oversight of the nonprofit while also noting that board members are volunteers dedicated to fulfilling the mission of the organization, which is to promote the region as a premier destination for travel, tourism and events.“(W)e remain unified and committed to providing our unwavering support to staff, vendors and others, and ensuring that GO Cedar Rapids emerges a stronger, more accountable organization,” the statement read.
