A New Year – A New Direction
See Lancaster is entering its fourth year as the Marketing and Tourism organization for Lancaster County. Staff and board members are always seeking to improve the local economy. Over the past three years, we have worked with many groups with the promotions of their events and to encourage regional visitors.
As we work on our 2008-2009 budget and plan for marketing Lancaster County, we’re seeking new directions to encourage tourism. We’ll be looking to assist with the promotions of events that are two days or longer and would be of interest to regional audiences.
We’ll also be finishing our cultural heritage project. It will lay out a plan of developing historic trail opportunities for those interested in learning about early settlers through the Revolutionary and Civil Wars, as well as other cultural and historic sites and issues. The project will be one of three different assessments that will be culminating in 2008
A new county-wide charrette and the National Main Street assessment will be combined to lay out a very specific “road map” of tourism marketing. It’s scheduled to be released in early 2009.
