Tourism ambassadors in action

In one day, the city of Seneca and Lake Hartwell Country combined for two sessions directed to front-line tourist workers and how they impact the local economy.  Phil Shirley, director of Oconee PRT, spoke during both sessions yesterday and focused on ways to entice tourists and visitors to extend their stays in Oconee County and come back.  About 20 people attended.  The event was held at the Hampton Inn and Suites.
