Oxford County's latest Tourism and Dining Guides are hot off the press.
The County produces around 50,000 of the tourism guides each year, and Tourism
Specialist Cathy Bingham says they go far and wide to draw people to Oxford. "Well this year we used the theme a '101 Things To Do In
Oxford County'. We've discovered already that when you see the guide on racks in visitor information centres, it is kind of a teaser phrase that grabs someone attention".
While the Tourism guide highlights events and attractions in Oxford, the Dining guide promotes local food producers and restaurants.
Bingham say even though the tourism guide is provincial, a separate Oxford County Dining Guide is a little more local. "Predominately within a 50 mile radius of Oxford County. We think that people that are looking for a dining experience or who are looking to check out some of the local producers, they'll be driving shorter distances than people that are making vacations around other events and festivals that are happening".
