The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority and the Las Vegas Chamber of Commerce have teamed up for the “Stay and Play Here” campaign geared toward locals.

The two organizations have launched a website that lists deals, discounts and special packages for local Las Vegans in order to draw residents to the Strip during the recession.

“The people who live here are truly the ambassadors for Las Vegas, so we’re asking you as ambassadors to go out, have a great time, enjoy Las Vegas and stay and play here for the next few months,” LVCVA President Rossi Ralenkotter told the Las Vegas Sun.
