In 2006, a ridership growth developer was hired. Her role involves client visits, surveys, appointment coordination, public education, developing new trip opportunities as well as expanding ridership.
New trip opportunities have involved weekend getaways which took patrons to both Orillia, Ottawa and Niagara-on-the Lake; travelling diners, daytripping, swim trips and trip to Farmers Market. Upcoming ventures include fall getaway to the Wasaga Beach area, Walter Ostenak show in Bright and the Walters Family Christmas show at the Sanderson Centre. We look forward to expanding our horizons and see new ones.
