Glacier Country's Destination Stewardship Strategy is a community-driven process. As the strategy is developed, hundreds of regional stakeholders from over 75+ communities in 8 counties will be actively included in the process through a variety of engagements including 1:1 interviews, tourism town hall meetings, resident and stakeholder surveys, and focus groups. If you are interested in learning more and being involved in the implementation of the strategy, please contact Racene Friede, President CEO at racene@glaciermt.com.
The objective is to engage the many diverse stakeholders who collectively comprise the tourism ecosystem in Glacier Country to identify and prioritize opportunities that will balance tourism growth with the long-term health and vibrancy of our communities.
Glacier Country Tourism's Board of Directors and Stewardship Steering Committee will take what we learn from our communities and create a long-term strategy that aligns with and complements existing community plans and initiatives. This strategic plan is about our communities and how we can work together toward common goals now and well into the future.
You can submit your nominations for individuals who are leaders, engaged in their community, and outside-the-box thinkers for each industry specific focus group HERE. Nominees will be reviewed then approved by the Destination Stewardship Plan team to ensure each focus group is geographically representative of the Glacier Country region.
