Calaveras Reservations Nearly Full For Weekend
Calaveras County is seeing nearly full advanced reservations for both camping and lodging this three day holiday weekend, according to the Calaveras Visitors Bureau.
Lisa Boulton, Calaveras Visitor Bureau Executive Director, was Friday’s KVML “Newsmaker of the Day”.
Boulton attributes the strong advanced numbers to a good marketing campaign, tourists staying closer to their regional home and a diversity of several activites offered throughout the county.
As Memorial Day Weekend kicks off the unofficial start of summer, the strong numbers should continue throughout the summer.
Boulton works year-round to make sure that Calaveras is a part of a visitor’s choice, even with the past two fairly dry winters.
“Additionally, the Calaveras Fair and Jumping Frog Jubilee came on the heels of National Tourism Week,” Boulton said. “Now is our time to show that there are plenty of sights and activities that we are able to promote and market throughout the county.”
The new 2013 Calaveras Visitors Guide have just been printed and are now available. Locals are welcomed and encouraged to pick one up at the office in Angels Camp and discover a number of new activities for themselves.
