This kind of tourism exists without any special effort by the community. However, <br />it can <br />be enhanced if local residents have a strong sense of community pride and <br />know about its local attractions. That way, when friends and family visit, they <br />are more likely to act as goodwill ambassadors, encouraging their guests to <br />experience all the community has to offer. This project definitely has the Goal #1 <br />as a crucial part of the full scale plan. Additionally Goal 5 will not only encourage <br />small business but the partnerships to provide a distinctive and honest visitor <br />experience. <br />Another important group to consider are those who travel for business. This <br />includes corporate meetings, conventions, conferences, and educational activities. <br />As with visiting friends and family, a community also receives a certain amount of <br />tourism from this segment without any special effort. Having Suncadia in Cle Elum <br />the project not only shows efforts of Goal #10 proactively planning, but it <br />recognizes and respects the immediate need to help support such a destination <br />attraction. To build that relationship and to benefit the community (goal #6) and <br />satisfy the tourists (goal #4) coming through Cle Elum and staying at Suncadia and <br />other accommodation properties. <br />Most tourism efforts target a third kind of traveler: the leisure traveler. This <br />group travels specifically for experiences that cater to them and which can't <br />be found closer to home, and they spend the most amount of money. Every <br />true "destination" community caters to this group of travelers. Well, Cle Elum is <br />listed in 90% of the activities that the Tourism Plan reviewed and mapped out. <br />This traveler definitely comes through the core downtown of Peoh Ave and Oakes <br />Ave to access all the points of interest listed in your 11 goals to further geotourism <br />within Kittitas County. Whether it is the market opportunities and land uses. <br />The Three Phases of Tourism <br />1. Get passers-by to stop. <br />As mention in your tourism plan, Cle Elum's Downtown offers multiple <br />opportunities to be involved with open space network and trails and to connect <br />those high priority activities to other county cities. Additionally, we are the hub <br />community for the Natural Access points and creating an interpretive area for <br />events, wildlife viewing, fishing, etc. <br />a2. <br />
