Set to take to new duties in the year ahead will be Michael Cote and Craig Outhet, the pair of local residents are the selection of the Council following the call for applicants back in early November.
The two successful applicants respectively have experience in aviation and the local hospitality industry on the North Coast.
As we outlined in November, the membership of Tourism Prince Rupert made note of the year just ending through their Annual Report and Virtual General meeting.
Tourism Prince Rupert will continue to focus on long-term planning and supporting the resiliency of our local sector well into 2022. In late 2020, Tourism Prince Rupert’s Board of Directors began the process to renew our five-year Strategic Plan, which currently extends from 2016- 2021. Throughout 2021, we will look to long- term planning, including developing increased strategies for destination development, local business support and advocacy, and refreshed marketing strategies.
In addition, we will continue to execute our annual marketing activities, carefully encouraging support of Prince Rupert’s tourism-reliant businesses in a way that is considerate of travel restrictions and recommendations put forward by the provincial health office.
