following attributes of Kittitas County: outdoor activities (hiking, biking, fishing, hunting,
wildlife viewing, etc... ), scenic drives, festivals, events, downtown designation
highlights, and other activities our region offers. Using data driven research (website
analytics, social media insights, 3rd party lodging statistics), as well as input from our
partners we will deliver contenUinformation with a high degree of relevancy focused on
guest search intent.
ln the area of recreation management, the Chamber will focus on, but not limited to,

the current demand we have seen throughout the County, the Chamber will create

outlet. lt takes a coordinated effort of in person, printed, and digital material
to deliver the message the campaign chooses to promote. Likewise a
campaign that spans the breadth of municlpalities, non-profits, and for profit
organizations requires persistent and planned interactions with a variety of
agencies and businesses. As such, ihe activities needed to execute our plan
