Winchester area boosts plan for regional booster campaign
In a wide discussion the budget for the first year of a regional booster movement was set at 50 000 dollars with Frederick and Berkeley counties each receiving about 4500 dollars. Harrisonburg anchors the effort with offices and a proposed national ad firm, a qualified outside business manager, and central offices on Main Street to show progress to travelers and locals alike. Although Winchester lacks large funds, its strategic location at crossroads promises major economic returns as highways improve and visitors pass through. The emphasis also notes the role of hotels, roads, homes, and churches in attracting and retaining visitors.
