Dennis Cox, evenings at UTAH FOUNDATION REPORT Community Pride Let's Sell Milford! Tourism takes lead In Garfield County, Newly completed go If course attract tourists In Kanab, Tourism on the increase In Pangultch, promoting Iron County as a tourist attraction shifts into high gear, these are a few of the headlines In last weeks' special addition of the Dally Spectrum. Tourists go everywhere -- and anywhere there are places of interest that appeal to them, Milford Is In a prime location to take advantage oT this tourist trade. With the new Great Basin National Park to the west, Bryce Zlon, and Grand Canyon areas to the South Beaver to the East, the Great Salt Lake and points of interest to the North, Milford needs to concentrate on ways to capture the tourists attention. We need to get them to stop and spend some time In our area as they are traveling to their different destinations. But how to "sell" Milford? What natural attractions do we have that could be promoted to the public? We have a very unique environment, the desert areas, and the Mineral Mountains with its different recreation areas. Our area Is quite different from that of neighboring Beaver. If we could capitalize on Beavers tourism and bring them our way too in their travels, it would benefit our whole county! If you have any ideas on how to promote tourism in Milford, come to the Milford Elementary School at 7:00 pjn. Monday, April 4th. The Community Pride Council will also be looking for Information on how to put "Milford" on display at BYU H Leadermete April 23. The theme Is Proud Past, Pro4-- mising Future.
