The Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs (OMAFRA) is pleased to facilitate the next session in its Online Downtown Revitalization Community of Practice series, to be held on June 5th, 2019, from 10:30-12:00.
This session will focus on addressing the effects of seasonality on downtown areas. Representatives from the Towns of Goderich and Collingwood will talk about the strategies they are using to mitigate the challenges and issues they face with variations in seasonal population and visitation. This includes events, promotions, and other activities that are keeping the downtown area a destination beyond their traditional summer and winter peak seasons.
