"Community Partnership" Program through Hershey-Harrisburg Regional Visitors Bureau

View from the Doyle Hotel

Justin Martsolf, Partnership Director at the Hershey Harrisburg Regional Visitors Bureau (HHRVB), just informed me of their "Community Partnership" program which starts at $180/yr to have HHRVB "put you on the map" in promoting events, businesses, etc. through their annual visitors guide, web site and PR department. 

Utilizing the HHRVB Public Relations department (AND Appalachian Trail Conservancy media outlets) to promote a designation event would just be one of many community benefits of such a partnership.  Complete information on partner benefits and services can be viewed here (PDF) and in the link on the sidebar.

Justin seemed very enthusiastic about potentially meeting with the A.T. Advisory Committee to discuss how Duncannon could best utilize HHRVB services to promote itself to a larger tourism market for its attractions, outdoor recreation opportunities, lodging, etc.  Perhaps the A.T. Community Advisory Committee could assist in recruiting tourism-related businesses to the meeting to hear more about these opportunities!  Unsure about the economic impacts of tourism in this region?  Check out the Tourism Stats from the large feeder markets of New York City metro, Philadelphia, Baltimore, NJ, New York, Washington D.C., Pittsburg & Western PA and Maryland within this region.
