Industry, Tourism and Investment’s Jennifer Thistle (Manager of Tourism & Parks for the Dehcho) and Stephanie Hardisty (Tourism Development Officer for the Dehcho) had close to 700 visitors to their booth at the Edmonton RV Trade Show February 8-11th!

Many of the attendees were shocked to find out how close the Dehcho Region was to the Alberta border and were pleased to learn of the amenities available in NWT Parks. Not only did Jennifer and Stephanie promote NWT Parks they talked about all of the amazing tourism operators and found that people were interested in both cultural tourism and flight-seeing tours of the Nahanni National Park. 

Resources such as the Explorers Guide, Road and Campground Guide and Tourism Operator Brochures were available to those who stopped by along with some free cozies, pens and notebooks. 

Pegged by NWT Tourism as the “Kingdom of the Mountains” it’s no wonder the Dehcho garnered so much attention at the show. The booth was so popular that they’ve made a note to bring even more information next year.
