tourismwalkprep21092011Great Bay (DCOMM):--- Preparations are well underway for 'Walk for Tourism' walk-a-ton on Sunday, September 25.

The first activity to celebrate World Tourism Day – September 27 - is a walk-a-ton with the Chippie van leading the walk followed by music from Happen so Massive. The walk-a-ton is being held under the banner, "Walk for Tourism."

An update will be given on Friday or Saturday whether the event will take place due to the possibility of Tropical Storm Ophelia forecasted to pass near the island over the weekend.

Participation is free. For T-shirts, you should contact the Tourism Office at 542-2337 or 542-1122 while supplies last.
