GOSHEN – Orange County is aiming its sights on attracting New York City residents to its tourist attractions with an additional $500,000 budget for a fall and winter marketing campaign.
Tourism Director Amanda Dana said the county will be promoting what it has to offer from the largest venues to the local ones.
“The theory is when we bring them in to the big anchors, we are going to trickle them in to smaller businesses in our downtowns and to our communities so that all businesses can rally reap the benefits of visitor spending,” she said.
The county’s total tourism promotion budget for this year now stands at $1.6 million.
