Festival unveils visitor's guide
A special publication prepared
by the Blyth Festival was launched
last week - the Blyth Festival
Visitor’s Guide in preparation for
National Tourism Awareness Week
(May 15 to 21).
“Our theme to the Visitor’s
Guide is ‘Country Pleasures Just
Waiting For You’’ says Jane Gard
ner, Director of Communications
for the Blyth Festival. “Each year
over 40,000 people visit the Blyth
Festival from June until Septem
ber. Our visitors enquire at our box
office about dining and accommo
dation in the area and for that
reason we display a variety of
brochures on places to dine, stay
and visit in our box office lobby
area.
“We created this special Visi
tor’s Guide so that many of the
questions tourists ask will be
answered in one publication - and
they need only walk away with this
brochure instead of a handful of
pamphlets. Within the last month,
we’ve received over a hundred
requests for our Visitor’s Guide
which includes over 21 local bed
and breakfast establishments.’’
Copies of this dining and accom
modation guide, listing over 55
organizations, is available through
the Blyth Festival Box Office by
calling (519) 523-4345 or by dropp
ing into the Box Office in Blyth.
The final report commissioned
by the Huron County Planning
Department on Tourism Develop
ment will soon be released which
was prepared by researcher David
G. Simmons of the University of
Waterloo. Simmons says, “resi
dents are generally in favour of
continued tourism development.
While agriculture and light indus
try are favoured options for devel
opment, tourism is a clear second
choice. Tourism’s principal advan
tages are seen as economic and
employment opportunities but as
sociated costs are recognized less
clearly. Future development for

tourism should focus on the further
development of natural and social
resources, and the protection and
enhancement of the ‘rural way of
life’.’’ Simmons adds that the
question of “local ownership’’ is
seen as central to developing a
satisfactory long-term tourism pro
duct and ensuring economic bene
fits remain in the local economy.’’
