News from the Bay of Quinte Tourist Council

The Bay of Quinte Tourist Council is pleased to announce that Alison Dickey has been hired as the marketing coordinator.
Alison’s priority will be to jump start initiatives set in place to increase tourism efforts in the Bay of Quinte region.
Working out of the whole region, Alison will be approaching all potential partners in Tourism in the coming months with new strategies to boost all efforts in making the Tourist Council’s goals realized. Of those goals, creating greater partnerships, instilling a powerful new website, and working with the region for a central new Tourism centre are of most importance.
“We are very excited for what is to come with Bay of Quinte Tourism” states Council President Lawrie Ackerman. “For the first time, we are able to have an individual who will be able to bring everything together for the greater good of the entire region”.
“We are sitting on a goldmine”, notes Director Ryan Williams. “This entire region, as we all know, is one of the most undiscovered in Ontario. Working alongside amazing initiatives seen through Taste the County in Prince Edward County, and Comfort Country in Tweed, Cambellford, and Madoc, Bay of Quinte Tourism will define the region not just in Tourism, but also as the great place it is to work and live.”
Partnerships are the key to Tourism’s success. The Bay of Quinte Tourist Council is a premier partnership in itself, having been formed in 1982 and made up of all Chambers of Commerce and Tyendinaga.
Alison is from the Quinte Area, attending Loyalist College with her diploma in Broadcast Journalism, and completed an internship with Quinte Broadcasting before working in Sales. She presently resides in Carrying Place. Look for her soon!
