Participants at the quarterly meeting reviewed past county tourism goals, and discussed a variety of goals for 1998-2001. Visitor hospitality continues to be very important, especially now that the county has increased lodging facilities, according to Carol Michael, 1998 committee chair "The goal of increasing awareness of the tourism committee, particularly to visitor related businesses, helps us distribute visitor information. The business community helps us to be aware of new and emerging trends in recreation and leisure time use," says Michael. "For example, a local business owner shared a project to develop a brochure informing cyclists about Morrow County back roads perfect for safe and interesting cycling. Community input helps us re-discover our county's unique qualities." Continuing development and refinement of the county community event calendar is another goal. Marsha Sweek, director of the Morrow County Museum, is the "keeper" of the calendar. Tourism Committee members check their local communities to update '97 events for the '98 calendar. This is a helpful tool for county Chamber's of Commerce and lodging facilities, says Michael. When visitors inquire about lodging, and ask "what else is happening that weekend", information about events and activities encourage visitors to stay another day or two in Morrow County, she says. To add new events to the 1998 county event calendar, contact a member of the Tourism Committee. Members present at the last meeting included Jean Nelson, Lexington; Claudia Hughes, Heppner; Ted Lieurance and Carol Michael, Boardman, and Lisa Mittelsdorf, Port of Morrow. For a copy of the updated 1998 calendar, contact Sweek at the Morrow County Museum in November.
