A local committee must study, research analyze and then prioritize the potential list of attractions. It is easy to rationalize reasons not to pursue the tourist dollar. We don't want strangers in our town. In fact it can add to that air of mystery and intrigue. It is your responsibility, or anyone else's that has an idea.
All programs start with one person's idea.
Any citizen with a vision of the community's potential that can feasibly be developed should initiate the action. A successful tourism development effort must have the support of the local citizens. Many people feel that citizen participation slows down and complicates the planning and implementation process. This is short-sighted philosophy. Citizen participation must continually be encouraged.
