what is up with tourism Fernie? /Fernie DMO?

i have sent a few email inquiries in the past while and never received a response.

my inquiries were about partnering with them on projects to bring more tourism to fernie.. like event packages etc.

one was about organizing a huge conference here in Fernie that could have brought in lots of stays.

never any responses...

what use is this organization again?

It is what we make it, pretty much like everything in Fernie.

Tell me more about your conference. Mid-size (500+) high-end conferencing is what I love to do, and I haven't had any opportunity here to date. Let's make it happen.

I know Allison left a few months ago and someone new was taking over for her. Last I heard they were still going.

conference opportunity is now long gone.

I would love to offer a ski and stay package with the fernie mountain film festival. Anyone want to help me help tourism out in Fernie?

I have recently started a little event planning guide for fernie called small town social.

BUT my point is, the small town social blog is up and running and it's purpose is to promote Fernie and the people and businesses here.

this may not be exactly what you're looking for here but if you need to promote any packages etc, let me know...or if you can think of a way to work together. who knows. who. knows.

I'm not sure what's going on at Fernie Tourism but I have heard that there is only 1 person working there...rumours won't help you though.

Strangely enough, I have been seeing an abundance of fernie tourism ads. They're everywhere!

I'd really rather all the tourists disappear and tourism wasn't promoted in Fernie, but that's just me.

Well, technically and legally, yes. I guess it depends on the definition of tourist.
